I also feel that happened when President Obama ran in 2008.
HAHAHAno. He's just another member of the ruling elite. Is there any question, after having dispatched Hilary Clinton (of the "old" ruling elite), yet bringing her on board as SoS? And now the proles are clamoring for Hilary in 2016. How about his refusal to admit mistakes-- personified by the continued presence of Holder as AG?
I don't expect every end-user to be knowledgeable on electronic devices, but I do expect people who write these articles to be. That woman was probably reading the label on the power supply, which likely is capable of delivering 500W but the cable box is unlikely to consume that much. You're looking at an embedded processor that's a system-on-a-chip or close to it, support components (at most, video and ethernet), a small fan, a small phosphor display and, at most, two hard disks. We're talking 200W.
I've probably wasted too much time on this already, because the very next line of the article says "35 watts", which I think is actually far too low.
We really need 456 2" @30 IPS for analog hipsters.
OK, maybe 15 IPS with Dolby SR would be cooler, because you've probably never heard of it.
