Buck,

How many PC's do you folks have ?

And you are saying just letting them hibernate saves this much ? I've
had a lot of problems with hibernate (HP PCs) and disable it. I do tell
it to turn hard drives off after 1 hour and monitors after 2 hours.

Thanks,

Chuck

Our company asked (not policy, no arm twisting) people to save
electricity by putting their PCs in sleep mode when they go home at
night. The latest estimate is that we will save about a hundred
thousand dollars this year if people continue to do this.

Aside from that, my work and home Windows PCs are on the 4 week Windows
update-may-require-a-reboot-and-always-does cycle.
