ok, I'll bite... if you sit on a 112.4V powerline and your gadget shows a current of 1.52A (2.40A), then your cosole sucks 112.4V*1.52A (*2.4A) = 170 Watt (270 Watt). Where do you get 101 (160) Watt from?

I agree... Squilliam, is this the "new math" I hear about? I think MS may have invented it? ;)
I had heard a rumor that the new Jaspers actually draw up to ~158W, as opposed to the ~175W of the old Falcon.
if you keep the voltage the same (112.4) and reduce the amps to 1.4 (not 2.4, as you typed) from 1.52, it comes out to 158W. Typo? I'm not following your logic with the 102W from 160W calculation -- especially since we all know that the current Falcon's supply is rated 175W, not 160W.
