but a PC with less than a 300 watt power supply?

The nominal power supply is different from the power actually used. I have a SOHO server which runs all the time so I measured its consumption. The PC itself (everything inside the case; AMD Sempron 2400+, 512 MB RAM, 120 GB HD) uses about 80 W in normal operation although the power supply nominally has 350 W. The 21" CRT monitor uses about 100 W on its own so I usually switch off the display. As the server operates with Linux I only need the monitor about once every quarter or less, most functions can be controlled by SSH login.
