Fujitsu To Show Off "Zero-Watt" PC At CeBIT

Posted by timothy on from the car's-mpg-is-infinite-while-engine's-stopped dept.

mobile writes "In August of last year Fujitsu announced new 'zero-watt' displays. This means the screens use absolutely no power when put into standby mode, unlike most other screens that use less than 1 watt, but still require some power. Now Fujitsu has announced they will be showing a zero-watt PC later this year at the CeBIT show. The PC is called the Esprimo Green and marks a first, in that it's able to use no power while in standby mode — but this is a feature that will be required from 2010 for new PCs released across Europe."

    The zero-power use state is activated when the "zero-power" LED turns on.
