Good habits

Tags: , , ,

Earth Hour for 2010 will take place on Saturday 27 March at 8.30 pm to 9.30 pm. Closing down most of your energy consumtion for one hour every year is supposed to contribute to a clear and measurable global energy saving. This will be one of the good initiatives taken and will be a continued call to action. It will, I think, also be an eye opener to more good habits, by you, for you and the planet. 

Welcome also to Earth Hour 2010 Conference, organized by WWF, World Wide Found for Nature, on 23 March at 1.00 pm – 5.30 pm, in the Golden Hall, Stockholm City Hall. The conference will present a series of pioneering examples of how business, politics and public sectors together can solve the global climate challenge.

All in One PCs – a computer and display in a single unit – are a great way to get the performance of a desktop PC without the cable clutter of a separate CPU and monitor. The compact design of an AIO also enables the user to conserve space on the desktop.  Ideal where space is limited or when the user wants to maintain a clean look on the work surface or having a free space under the work surface.


TCO Certified is your assurance that your AIO delivers all the visual performance you expect from a freestanding monitor – outstanding color, luminance and resolution. It fulfills some of the toughest environmental criteria around – from strict limits on hazardous substances and energy consumption, to designed for recycling. It fulfils a brand commitment to socially responsible manufacturing practices. Add to this the criteria for safety, usability and low emissions and you can be sure that every product bearing the TCO Certified label is among the very best.
AIO is the latest addition to the family of TCO Certified for PCs. First out to certify AIO is Lenovo, hereby congratulated.
