My dad's computer is a P3-750 and is on 24/7 acting as the router for the rest of the comps. I was thinking about putting SETI on it to do some crunching, but then I realized that perhaps SETI would cause his computer to consume more power than if it were just idling.
So does using DC programs like SETI cause a computer to consume more power? If so, is it negligible?
