What is interesting is that I spent a few years prior to Intel in the Gas & Electric industry, spending time with customers & internal electric troubleshooters. During this time I spent a few dedicated months talking about saving Kilowatts, how to do it, tips, tricks, tools & breaking bills down to specific pieces of hardware in the house that are good suspects. I remember at this time (early 90's) that we received an update about computers and their impact on the customers bills, and at that moment I was wow'd by the impact. Well, since then things have changed and it feels like for the better, of course even better with vPro and yes I do believe.. 
So over the next 2 months I'm working on doing a few power tests on vPro to show the value of having a vPro system & what we see in the End user labs that we've setup. If you are as interested as I am let me know, it would be great to run these tests in parallel to see what results we get and the # of kilowatt hours we save collectively.
so how can you let me know? 2 way's..
1. blog me back here with your comments
2. shoot me an email at Josh@Intel.com - Yep. Josh@intel.com
If you think there's no way you can save Kilowatt hours with vPro, let me know that to.. i'm interested in your thougthts, opinion, etc..
Looking forward to comments..
There were two sessions at ManageFusion 2008 in saving energy on clients in the corporate environment. Almost all hands when up when the question was asked "How many of you have a corporate initiative for green IT?”
HP is pursuing a “top down” power management tool from Verdiem Surveyor for the corporate environment as well as a “bottoms up” tool (HP Power Manager” for installation on clients that lets employees see the actual $ impact of their energy savings using a simple slider bar.
I will post the HP link for the client tool on my BLOG when it becomes available
