I read in Women’s Health that the EPA says setting your computer to automatically switch to sleep mode can reduce your household electric bill up to $75 a year. Scott Herring of support.com recommends fully closing programs that always search for updates (for example, iTunes and spyware) and turn off screen savers. Support.com even offers a free Green Computer service.
Watch their YouTube video on “How to Green Your Computer.”

Another great way of going green for PCs is to look into a company called Userful. They can turn one ordinary PC box into ten workstations with their linux created desktop software. See for yourself – http://www.userful.com
Thanks for that tip! I’ll definitely check it out.
