Intel Releases Several Projects to Help Save Power
GeekyBodhi writes "LessWatts.org is Intel's new website that hosts several power saving tools. As Linux.com reports, it also shares tips and tricks to help optimize power consumption on hardware from portable devices running on batteries to large data centers. 'LessWatts.org is not about marketing, trying to sell you something or comparing one vendor to another. LessWatts.org is about how you can save real watts, however you use Linux on your computer or computers.' As reported on Slashdot earlier, this isn't the first time Intel has tried to help Linux users cut their power bills. In May, the company launched the PowerTOP program that monitors individual processes to keep track of power consumption. The project comes at a time when more vendors are pre-installing Linux on handhelds and laptops." Linux.com and Slashdot are both owned by SourceForge.
No, his name is Lester Watts ... Les Watts for short.
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
LessWatts is short, understandable and catchy. FewerWatts or LessWattage just sounds pedantic.
Or, they could have gone the nostalgia route and used "WattsYouTalkinAboutWillis.com"
