So it seems like the magazines and web sites of supposed IT pundits are abuzz with the concept of Green Computing. Lower the cost of your data center seems to be the concept being pitched for the most part. But the thing is, energy cannot be created nor destroyed… So how do we do it? Well we’re packing more and more information into those little chips. This makes them more powerful. And they need to use less electricity as the amount of space on those chips to hold it is reduced. Therefore you end up with more data getting thrown through the chip and them using less power at the same time. Now it’s nice that they use less raw electricity and lower costs, but that’s not what most admins, CTOs, etc are looking for. They’re looking for faster boxen. So the big thing we’re getting out of Green Computing is more bang for our buck. Love that…
