I recently installed FreeBSD on a system based on Intel's latest Atom processor -- the so-called "Mount Olive" motherboard. According to my Kill-a-Watt meter, it maxes out at 25W. It's cheap (~$80 for the motherboard) and definitely a lot of fun, but not much good as a space heater. Good thing I live in the Pacific Northwest, where we enjoy such a mild climate!
