In case you ever wondered how much power your Itanium machine draws, here are
measurements for 2 "random" machines, measured with a P4400 Kill A
Watt^{TM} meter:

                                                                      
         plugged in:  booted:   make -j4:
   HP zx2000 (1x900MHz McKinley):                                  10W
    210W      250W
   SGI Prism (2x1.6GHz Madison, 2x ATI X2 graphics):        20W    
377W      385W

I won't vouch for the accuracy of the P4400, but at least it some numbers... ;-)

Enjoy,
