While the performance/Watt is higher than modern hardware, what is the total resource-cost of buying a new mini-server? It might be relatively cheap money-wise, but we have yet to add in the long-term costs to all the gadgets we make. This old laptop is from 2013 and uses between 10-30W (highest when the screen is on).
