How PowerTOP, LatencyTOP, and Five-Second Boot Improve Desktop Linux (O'Reilly)

O'Reilly has put up an interview with Arjan van de Ven, available as (MP3) audio or a transcript. "A lot of users were helping because if you give people more battery life, that's what people care about a lot. Distributions also use it because they compete almost on battery life. They compete on usability and battery life is just part of usability; that's the thing that PowerTOP has done is put that more on the radar--that software matters for battery life."
