let me just comment that resistive heating
is an expensive way to heat your room

And the flip side is A/C, which simply has
to remove the heat.  Overall this is a bad
strategy - better to get the dual core someone

You might get a few points extra in some
global warming class that way,  or maybe
even an award for being so environmentally
friendly.  You just keep on winning..
