That is an exaggeration. Computers sleeping with 11.5w of power draw are banned (100kw/y depending on configuration), not 100w. That is more or less pushing a high end graphics card for 20 minutes. So a drop in the bucket for a workstation or gaming pc.
But regardless I agree these regulations are a good thing. These computers should be shipped in a low power configuration.

Even assuming those units are watt hours, I have no idea where you're going with this. Specifically the second sentence. What is a drop in the bucket for a workstation or gaming pc? Is what the power draw during sleep compared to total power draw, or are you comparing some of the other quantities you brought up? > But regardless I agree these regulations are a good thing. That's not what I was trying to say or did say. My post was supposed to give people an idea of the general magnitude we're dealing with.
