I'd really like one of these for an 'always on' computer. I estimate that my Barton Athlon box eats between 90-100 watts idle.

Yeah, it's in German, but you can use http://www.google.com/translate to get something readable

It'd take a little more power, but I'd rather have a system with an Asus P4 board, and a CT-479 (adaptor so a Pentium M can run on a supported (read: Asus) P4 board). Cheaper, faster, and better overclocking.

Or just link to the english article.

Btw ... 100watts idle for a barton is really to much.
If it where a P4 EE 3.4Ghz ... sure.. but a AXP get at max to 84watts

I got an watercooled XP 2500 @ 2.5Ghz (thats over 3600+) and it get under full load 47 degrees. (and i have an single rad setup with a very slow pabst fan @ 5 volt)

They don't have an English article yet, AFAICT.
