| sensors, recycled materials, ...), software 
| (built a farm according to: your personal 
| needs, local vegetables, local gastronomy, 
| farm location, ...) that will give you the 
| tools to design, control and manage your farm

Copenhagen Climate Council Promotes GNU/Linux on Thin Clients

,----[ Quote ]
| If that is not a promotion of GNU/Linux on
| thin clients, I do not know what would be more
| clear. Energy produced by fossil fuels runs
| many PCs. If we replace the PCs with terminal
| servers and thin clients we can save a lot of
| power consumption:
|
|     * typical thick client consumes about 100
|     watts apart from the monitor, keyboard and
|     mouse
|     * typical thin client can be 20 watts or
|     less
|     * the difference is about 80 watts saved
|     per conversion to thin client, perhaps 75
|     watts because we need a terminal server
|     which runs a bunch of thin clients
|     * 75 watts saved times 1000 million PCs is
|     75 gigawatts
