I have personally tested the power specifications for Acer Aspire Revo R3600. They is not more than one or two point difference in the both of the values as mentioned in your post. Idle power consumption 22-20W and Peak power consumption 25-27W. So, you can trust the figures given by the Internet.

Do you happen to have any figures for power usage when sleeping?

I am thinking of building a HTPC our of a Revo. With wake up timers for recording and wake up on USB for an IR remote, it should be able to sleep most of the time to save power.
