Sorry, going to steal this thread;-) Everyone knows changing from incandescent light bulbs to energy saver ones is good for the environment, but I seem to be having trouble doing it on my Mac.
I noticed the other day that my daughter's MacBook Energy Saver PreferencePane Icon is an Energy Saver light bulb, like the one at the bottom of this page under the heading: Extra small. Extra green http://www.apple.com/macmini/ My MacBook Pro 17" Energy Saver PreferencePane Icon is the same old incandescent light bulb they've used for ages. Between us, my family have a MacBook Pro 17", MacBook Pro 15", a MacBook, a PowerBook G4, a Power Mac G5 and two G4 Mac Mini's all running 10.5+. All of them have the incandescent light bulb except my daughter's MacBook. I'm on 10.5.6, she's on 10.5.5. I note the old incandescent Icon is used in this recent Apple video tip: http://www.apple.com/business/theater/?sr=hotnews#tutorial=optimizingbattery So, anyone else out there have the Energy Saver Icon? And how did you get it? (PS I do appreciate that changing to the Energy Saver Icon will not in fact save any energy, but as with most things hyped as 'Eco Friendly' these days, it's more about show - like trucks and buses with 'eco' engines; sure they might pump less greenhouse gases into the atmosphere but the only time any diesel/petrol engine of any size is friendly to the environment is when it's turned off) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
