extremetech.com— Meet the fit-PC, a tiny 4.7 x 4.5 x 1.5-inch PC that only draws 5-watts, consuming in a day less power than a traditional PC consumes in one hour.

How does this device draw 5 Watts total if the hard drive alone requires 5V at 1 A? Does this assume that the computer is idling and not doing any disk I/O?I'll stick with my MacMini, which consumes 4-6x the power, and has a C2Duo processor. It delivers the goods without breaking the laws of thermodynamics.
Does 24 x less too. I could also say my pen and paper consumes 100% less power than a regular PC, but I doubt I could do anything I could do on my macbook with it.

Double the price, twice the style and half the performance. Plenty of reasons to buy a Mac.
