Yes but the power supply isn't using 5-10W by itself like you were saying if the entire PC idles at 9W.

That may be true, but it still exposes an underlying weakness in private sector job growth.

Yeah it all makes sense, but the speed of expansion is just wild. What will the global market look like in 10 years I wonder? Anyway, /rant.

The 100 series LC with the 1HD 6cyl engines were pretty good. All their other diesels have had problems ranging from moderate to serious.

I agree with you other than their diesel engines. Compared to the competition they are not better than average.

No worries, glad to help. I also read the Cupra post and thought the negatives outweighed the positives. There's no perfect car I guess!
