What Kind Of Solar Power Setup Would I Need To Power A Single Room’s Energy Needs?

I live in the basement of a house and want to run my room on solar power. I have two power strips that run a TV and DVD player, a laptop, printer and two external hard drives and I would need to use a couple floor lamps in the room as well. What kind of solar paneling complex would I need and what would be the ballpark cost on this?

Let me just say, the cost would be too much to be worthwhile. It appears you would need at least 750 watts. if you wanted to use the electrical things at night too, the system would have to deliver that much power for the gear, and more to charge the batteries. Make it a total of 1500 watts, and you would need between 10 and 15 panels, plus an inverter, mounting rails for the panels, two combined disconnect switches and wire. I expect around $10,000 or more.
I came accross a new, proven and tested home made wind power system and solar power system which eliminates our electricity bills. It was written by a Renewable energy enthusiasts Michael Harvey the diy called Earth4energy. You can get your copy to save energy and help environment while eliminating your power bills.

The sun is solar energy, but I reckon the sun is the one causes the solar power to turn out our electric thing.
