An old celeron/board/ram running at about 8w? wat? have you actually measured the wattage with anything? even a basic energy monitor would do.
It's a laptop, so much lower power than a PC, he might have even unvolted it, I'm not sure... But he's measured it with his multimeter, can't remember the actual current it was drawing, but once converted into power used over a day, worked out to be about 2p a day.
