Publisher's description

From Codefounders :

Powerdown minimises energy use and maximizes cost savings by controlling the power state of individual computers. Idle computers are turned off or placed in a low power state and can be automatically restarted for maintenance or operational purposes. Per PC per year it can produce savings of up to $30/60 and reduce carbon emissions by up to 300kg. Unlike competing solutions Powerdown does not rely on computers being connected to the network to achieve energy savings and it is the only solution specifically designed with electrical safety and the needs of laptop users in mind. Powerdown is suited to all unmanaged and managed computing environments, from standalone PC's to fully managed corporate computing environments and offers features including centralized enforcement and optimization of OS power settings; shuts down and automatically restarts even when PC's are disconnected from the network; simple management and configuration; full Active Directory integration.

Version 1.2 features support for operation on Windows XP SP3 and includes several performance and reliability enhancements in the policy editor tool and the scheduler.
