Everyone knows that Vista is a CPU hog because of its Aero feature… plus some software bundles that come with purchased computer, these significantly slow down the performance. In order to speed up your system, you can uninstall unused/trial version of software, or modify Services Startup via Services.msc or System Configuration via msconfig.

Accidentally change Theme Service from Automatic to Manual can totally change the look of Start button…

As the global shift toward green continues, Congress show their concern on climate changing. US Congress will change 125-year old Incandescent light bulbs to energy-efficient Compact Fluorescent lights in next four years. 

NYSERDA (New York State Energy Research and Development Authority) team up with lighting manufacturing to offer rebate checks to lighting distributors, contractors, lighting designers/architect and end users if they use energy-saving fixtures on their projects.

If you’re a home owner having a four-family or above house, you can get tax rebate if you improve your lighting system by using sensor or dimming system. This tax rebate applies to office buildings as well.
