As suggested at the workshop, I've purchased a Kill-A-Watt meter 
(newegg.com sells them cheaper than thinkgeek.com)  What is the best way 
to get an acurate reading?  And which numbers should I be concerned 
with?  The VA number?  Is it best to take a reading over a period of 
hours? minutes?  What can I run to ensure that the CPU is running at 
full load?
