be nice if they could pool all the saved money from the saved electricity to make the upgrades to save more electricity and save more money for the pool to add more upgrades and save more money.... Yeah, it's a vicious cycle isn't it?

Thank you ms for trying to help me save money on my electric bill.
I really want you ms to help save money on my next windows upgrade.
Offer lower price for people who are upgrading from vista to win 7 or offer family pack pricing for people who own more than one computer in their house.

Microsoft realizes that there are too many demands on today's family budget. With Hohm they hope to reduce utility bills and determine the average savings so it's easier to plan for product price increases in the future.

Microsoft HeadQuarters: "Your sir, are brilliant! If they save money on electricity they can buy Windows at higher prices! You are promoted."

Not to mention that now they can get all the benefits of "supporting the environment." Just another thing Microsoft would do to try and heal a public image, which tricking more people. They always find a way of getting good press, but really just sucking more and more money out of people.

Not to play with words...but wouldn't a house without "Windows" save more electricity XD

--besides its obvious play on the words Home and ohm--

I bet no one in the outside world will get it.

I just signed up for the beta (puget sound energy customer)but I'm not sure what it's going to do to help me, just curious what my neighbors are paying compared to me.

Next from MS...

Microsoft Dumpit. They will monitor and manage your toilet usage.

But can it monitor Crysis?

 

[drunknmunkys]

Does it blend? Or would that be a waste of electricity?

oh bull s*** im guessing most consumers wont even buy the next version of windows, if they do, it will be on a new computer. my grandma is still running windows 98, all my extended family is still running xp (minus a couple running vista) as far as i can tell people dont flock stores to buy the latest and greatest operating system. im tired of the microsoft hating doom and gloom crap. go suck your apple.
