Mitchell Ashley talks with interesting people about interesting topics in the world of Microsoft.

HP, Intel and Citrix have joined forces by sponsoring a new event, Power IT Down Day on August 27th. The Federal business units of these organizations created this event to bring awareness to the need and benefit of turning off unused equipment, particularly end users’ desktop and other computing equipment when the leave work for the day. Estimates are that the US could see a similar spike in power costs over the next seven years that we’ve recently experienced with gasoline prices. If 10% of government employees followed the practice of turning off unused equipment during off hours, savings could be as much as $24,000 every day. Join me in talking Tom Simmons, Citrix Federal area Vice President, about why these companies joined forces to sponsor this event, learn how companies can participate, what would be considered a success and how you can help save energy costs.
