We figured out at a previous job that if we bought a newer more energy 
efficent system we'd be saving money within 2 years.  That was before "go 
green" energy saving systems came around.  Sadly, the money for computers 
came out of a whole different divisions budget as the money for data 
center power and we couldn't convince the later folks to fork over some 
money.  I should have brought it up at a public board meeting....
