Wow. Well I must say that all that plan flexibility does sound nice!

In Texas here you have a whole assortment of plans.?
You can get a plan
that uses only power generated by solar or by wind or by hydro.? Plans
that have "free" power on weekends and you paw for weekdays, or vice

My current plan has a 12-month contract.? I pay OnCor (the local power
company) $3.49/month plus 3.4556 cents per KWh.? I pay Reliant (the
power supplier) $5.00/month plus 3.7 cents per KWh. Averaging about 7.7
cents total per KWh.? Highest bill so far was July - $164.18 for 2184.4
KWh.? But I haven't re-assembled my hardware yet so that doesn't include
any computer costs other than my personal Mac Pro, my work laptop and my
wife's two computers. I have yet to put up my MSA SAN disks, two
XP1000's, MicroVAX 3100 M95 or my RX2660 and ZX6000.
The great thing about living in Ohio was that for about 5 months I could
open the windows and have Mother nature cool the basement. In Texas the
winter will barely be cool enough to do anything. I'm sure I'll be
paying more to run less and probably keep more shut down when not in use.
