Seriously, there was a 1 hr show on the history channel tues night all about it. It uses a LOT of juice. Can't remember the exact number, but it uses something like 120,000 kW / hour.

What if it overloads and emits an electromagnetic pulse that completely wipes out every bit of technology on the planet? Would my 360 warranty cover that? | |
