Has anyone ever seen a comparison of the cost of running a P4 based 
machine compared with a PII?

How much power is used per hour by each system?

I guess if you are updating 10,000 machines it may incure appreciable 
extra cost, not to mention environmental consequences...

It would be interesting to see how much bigger the hole in the ozone layer 
would get if the Fortune 100 companies all migrated to XP. I assume you 
need a P4 to run XP...
