I just tested with my 24" LCD. On a white screen it registers 60W. When I change to a black screen (dos window max) it shows 61W.
On lowest brightness it's 21W. On maximum brightness it's 71W. I originally had it on 80% brightness. When power save kicks in for the monitor it's 0 Watts. This was with a DVI connection. Sorry I didn't check for VGA vs DVI.
I have a 20" CRT here also. It shows 61W for the maximized dos box and 102W when switched to maximized notepad.
