Interesting point - I had never quantified the actual cost of leaving a server on - so here are some live measurements & costs per month given my electricity supplier's rate of GBP 0.11 per KWh:
Xbox with one HD ~ 260mA ~ GBP 5 Libretto 70CT (weather station) ~ 38mA ~ GBP 0.72! Vaio Laptop ~ 100mA ~ GBP 1.90 Take your point about frequency of server fires... I may pension off the Xbox... Cheers.
