Get a PC that's as low powered as a Pi, there are such beasts around
nowadays and you can even find quite cheap refurbished ones.  I like
Fujitsu Esprimos, my desktop machine is an Esprimo P910 which is
getting rather long in the tooth now (and consumes 18 watts at idle).
I'm getting an Esprimo Q957 to replace it, that idles at about 5
watts. There are lots of different models with different capabilities
and you can find even lower power ones than the Q957.

Thanks.  An interesting looking little beastie, but the only place I
could find selling them was Currys, and they appear to be for trade
sales only.
 

Look on eBay, there's a German company selling refurbished Q957s.  The
current model is the Q958 (I think), you'll probably find more people
selling that.
