Heating

[DimPrawn]

With the colder weather on its way, I was thinking that if we are going to waste electricity on heating our homes, why not use a dozen or so powerful PC's as heaters.

In this way they can all chug away 100% on curing cancer, finding aliens, getting a vaccine for smallpox, etc AND keep our house warm at no more cost than a storage heaters or any other electric heating.

I reckon 30 dual core PC's would keep my house warm and probably cure cancer by mid March.

What does our learned panel think?

Well, I think you're a tosser. As for the rest of my disciples, they can make their own minds up.

I have several machines in my home, and I can confirm it does work.

Add in a log burning stove and I, as the older members of the congregations know, can grow orchids into flower even in the depths of a Danish winter.

I once received a Christmas card with "Jesus loves you" on the front. Inside it said "Everyone else thinks you're a ****". Which was nice.

So, Threaded confirms that if I fill my house up with about £25K worth of cutting edge processing power, I'll have a warm house and a cure for cancer. Or maybe I'll just get burgled...

my office is toasty warm with three servers and a client pc quietly doing their thang. gets a little too warm in the summer!

We were all under the impression that was due to the high quality of the bulltulip they are fed

I've got six and it warms the room up nicely but the noise is pretty unbearable at times. And that's just the nagging...

I find a tin of baked beans nicely warms the room.

I reckon my 42" 300 Watt plasma screen will warm the place even better, assuming the shop can fix it.

They were throwing it out at work, because it wouldn't turn on, so I snaffled it with their blessing. The guy in the shop reckons he can fix it for a couple of hundred quid, although he says he's having trouble getting the parts.

[DimPrawn]

Yes but your plasma screen ain't gonna find any or discover a cure for cancer is it?

If everyone replaced their electric heating systems with we'd be
