Hi Dave et al,
I _have_ used my RP5470 as a heater, in the middle of winter it will keep
this room about 5 degrees C warmer. It spent most of last winter chewing on
Seti@home by way of something useful to do. This is how I found out about the
power bill :-(.
I am nowhere near Adelaide, that city is about an 8 hour drive from here. I
am about 40 minutes from the city of Melbourne in the state of Victoria.
Cheers,
Geoff.
