Negative watts on iStat

I have been seeing some unusual numbers in iStat on my quad core. I see negative wattage numbers for the CPU and I can't make sense of it? I know the quad core is awesome, but never thought it could make negative power.
Your iMac is converting your pure amazement with it into pure energy. It converts more than it needs so it feeds the excess back into the grid, hence the negative energy. Look for a rebate on your next energy bill.
I see the same, and I also don't get any updates for Ethernet traffic in iStat Pro. It just sits there at zero. iStat Nano correctly reports the Ethernet traffic, though. Pretty strange. Are you guys seeing this as well?
I put in a support request about it a week or so back, but haven't heard anything about a resolution yet.

I have negative watts and a negative uptime. Did i just come from the past or something? lol
My network doesn't display anything over airport either, despite me having a constant stream of file downloads.
These are probably bugs with istat pro not being updated. I sent a DM to islayer about this. They said that they were working on it but could not release an update yet as they did not have an imac 27" to test on.
