I checked with a Kill-a-Watt.

My 37-inch LCD uses no measurable amount of electricity when off and less than half what my 27-inch CRT did when it's on.

It does take awhile longer to power up, but I can deal with the startup time given the massive improvement in picture quality and the power savings.
