Something on the idea of "mild-mannered office server by day, rebooted 
into a frontend for Mytv to watch Seinfeld, then spending third-shift 
doing the rsync-backups." All at a screaming 9 watts or so.

So different computrons for first-, second- and third-shifts, not 
necessarily more. Just an idea. They're cheap. And don't do much but add 
to the to-do list.
