Dear customer,

 

Low power applications are highly topical. New processor technolgies reveal surprising possibilities.

 

At the same time an adapted BIOS turns a Celeron M processor on and off in no time. Low power can be achieved with not so new processors and creativity as well.

 

Enjoy your reading!
