My alphaserver 1200 with two 5/533 cpus, 4GB memory and 8 disks internally draws 500 Watts. That's 12 kWhr each day, around    2,5 per day. 
A fully loaded 4100 has 4 cpus and draws as much as 650 W (swag). 
My monthly power bill is    140 / month. No way I'll run systems 24/7 ever again. 
An integrity is not an option I guess.

Not for one user I suppose - but if someone wanted to run one, I'd rent a VM off it for a reasonable share of the operating costs..
