I read somewhere that the Efika only draws 4.1 watts of power? How can that be when "The world?s most energy-efficient desktop computer" draws 14 Watts? Who is lying? :P

Well I don't know anything about how much power the Efika actually draws but I do know that it isn't really a desktop computer in the strictest sense...

I guess that is Efika like in "motherboard" ... so without all the stuff that makes it a computer.

My measuremnts yielded a typical uptake of 14W (that is the Efika mainboard, loss of PSU, gfx card, hdd and hid devces on the usb.

Got some more measurements here (german): http://via.i-networx.de/bench.html.

but you could use a compact flash card with efika and cybergraphx over ethernet right instead of actually having a gfx card - then you'd have a pretty power efficient desktop pc...
