  Microsoft Says Windows Server 2008 Cuts Power Consumption By 10%
Time: 23:41 EST/04:41 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

With electricity prices continuing to skyrocket and processors getting ever hungrier for power, it was only a matter of time beforeMicrosoft (NSDQ: MSFT) chimed in with claims that its latest software can cut energy bills. A Microsoft white paper released this week asserts that Windows Server 2008 can cut power consumption by 10% compared with Windows Server 2003 out of the box, and much more if running virtualized.

Microsoft compared power consumption between two installations on the same server with two dual-core processors and 4 GB of RAM, one running Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64 Edition with SP2 plus hot fixes, and the other running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition, with a hard drive formatting in between.
