Today is Earth Day, a day where we are supposed to celebrate progress made in protecting our environment and conserving energy. Don't feel you can make any impact? How about tuning up your PC's power management system, so that your PC is appropriately "green". We ran across this article on eXoid.com on utilizing S3 Standby Mode power management without sacrificing usability. Well worth a read, and a simple geeky way you can participate in Earth Day....

Because of increasing awareness in the general public about energy conservation, the ability to utilize low power states on desktop PCs is incredibly underdocumented and widely unused. My goal with this article is to change all that, to help computer users everywhere utilize these low power states without losing any original functionality of their network drives or remote applications. Heck, if you follow this guide, you may even be able to save a buck or two in the process.
