Alright power thing again

[Tn]

Okay since there wasn't much response to my last post I'm changing it a bit. How much crap do you have in your system and how much juice? Here are my specs:
250watt
2 CD-ROM drives, hated the take HL CD out, put in MSDN, take MSDN out, put in HL... so I stole the 4x one from my old computer.
1 floppy
1 HDD soon to be 2
1 Marvel G200 soon to be G400+RR-G
1 SB Live Val
2 disabled network cards. Don't have time to go to my friends' houses anymore.
1 56k modem, internal, not winmodem
1 Card Cooler, 2 chip fans, 1 case fan
and soon to be 1 USB Pen Partner(drawing tablet)

USB devices use the power coming through the large power, can't remember what it is called, connector that hooks into motherboard, right?

128Mb PC100 DIMM

SCSI Panasonic PD Drive
IDE Pioneer 6x DVD Drive
Millennium G400 32Mb DH

NCR PCI SCSI Adapter
