Linux captures the 'green' flag, beats Windows 2008 power-saving measures (Network World)

@j0el

my point was that the author in the original article talks about 'tickless kernels' as some
magic thing that may exist on the distant horizon, but it is actually already done, working,
and in use on millions of desktops and servers...

as far as the rest of your comment I'm very well aware of who implemented it and which company
pays their salary. thanks for the comment. my point was that the 'enterprise distributions'
could do with catching up a kernel rev or two since 'green' is the new in thing for
datacenters. it's not too much use implementing something then not using it for years...
