Submission + - Monitor draws zero power in standby

fifthace writes: "A new range of Fujitsu Siemens monitors don't draw power during standby. The technology uses capacitors and relays to avoid drawing power when no video signal is present.

With political parties all over Europe calling for a ban on standby, this small development could end up as one of the most significant advances in recent times. The British Government estimates eight percent of all domestic electricity is consumed by devices in standby."

Comment Laptop Graphics Cards NOT SUPPORTED by Doom 3 (Score 1) 392

Well, I had problems with my GeforceFX go5600 with running Doom 3, in that it failed to initialize opengl...

So I contacted Activision, who told me that laptop equivalent graphics cards (Radeon 9600, 9700, and the new 9800 and future X600, GeforceFX 5200, 5600, 5650 and 5700) of desktop cards are unequivocally unsupported.

So the moral of the story is don't by this game for your gaming laptop!
