Power comsumption is the whole point... Laptop or desktop doesn't matter. A watt saved is a watt saved. My system takes about 420W when under heavy load - idle the cpus clock down - it drops to around half. At least to me, that's worth running a program that comes for free with your distro :-)That's what I wanted to know - thanks.
And every watt not consumed by the PC is that much less heat generated into the system, server room, or ???
