The Greening of Wharton Computing - Smallest footprint winner

| | Comments (0)

IMAG0012 Ages ago, I threw down a challenge of sorts, asking people to measure their desktop setup's energy footprint using a handy dandy Kill-A-Watt (external link) monitor.

Bev C. set the bar extremely high...(or low in this case), reporting a 65W total utilization for her setup:

  • Lenovo X60s with a docking station
  • SyncMaster 206BW monitor
  • Netgear 8 port gigaswitch
  • Speakers
  • Cisco IP Phone

     

    She rocks and wins the "sustainability" prize.  Pictured, she's got a: reusable shopping bag from Wegmans, an "I <3 VMware" bumper sticker, and a pen made mostly of cardboard (that I re-used from VMWorld 2007).

    Congrats, Bev!  You are a Model Sustainable IT Citizen!
