Yep - that's measured using a clamp meter on the mains voltage side of the transformer. Its only a P3 at 700, so lower power than a newer machine.

Is that _measured_ consumption or what the manual/label on the laptop says it should use? Also is this on the DC/laptop side of the power supplu, or the AC/mains side? They seem quite low? My Powerbook maxs out at 45W on the AC mains side of the power supply (according to the probably-conservative label on it). So thats probably 30W used by the laptop, worst case.
