How bad is your electric bill? You use a kvm switch setup for the keyboard/mouse or do you just plug in as needed? Is that cat food or dog food? lol

You should plumb the exhausts of all those PC's into your house's air ducts and use them to heat your house!

That could work, but wouldn't it pose some health risks? I mean, there's a reason why there's a dust filter in a furnace isn't there?

How many different outlets are you using? I see all of the surge protectors in the back, but those can't possibly all run from one wall outlet!

probably could off one outlet if the outlet was feed by 2 20 amp breakers...

Runs around $450.00 a month.

For the main Farm I use one 16 port and two 4 port KVM's, the 16 and one 4 port are connected to one monitor and they each KVM has its own keyboard and mouse. The other 4 port is connected to another monitor and keyboard and mouse.

Cat food.

I do use the computer room to heat the house, I use fans to direct the heat.

This is a picture before the electrictian was here. There are now four dedicated 15Amp circuits with whole house surge protection and a 17Kw backup generator for power outages.
If you Guys would like it, I will post more pictures as I get them.

Lol. We were hoping that it was my mom who won that 14 million lottery. Woulda been such a good way to start off the new year. But alas, luck is mainly in your own hands.

Were these personal purchases or do you have a company that can use them as deductions? It seems very dedicated to the cause.
Also it looks great!

All out of my pocket. All twenty Dell Vostro 400's and four 410's Fold 24/7.
My DIY project is my first build, all I have to do now is to learn how to OC it. It also Folds 24/7.
My Dell XPS is my all around system for whatever, but it also Folds 24/7
