Besides, it's vaguely funny, short, and easy to remember, and we're planning to replace the counters with.... more Formica! (The ants we're planning to replace with dead ones.)

This site is served by a 1.4 GHz 2014 Mac Mini, the lowest-power
non-laptop Apple has ever made. It draws about 4–6W when
quiescent, and has an extremely quiet fan. This latter characteristic
is what prompted the change in servers (from a
faithful 20TH-century G4 "Sawtooth" PowerMac
that drew about 30W) since I now work from home in the computer room,
but the choice of the 4-year-old 2014 model in particular was due to
its low power draw. It is unlikely, however, that the lifetime power
savings will ever pay for the premium I had to
pay for such a new (at the time) unit, versus a similarly-quiet but
older and less expensive 9–13W Mac Mini that would have run the
same software. (Our power here is only 5.5¢ per kWH.)
