But while surfing the web with a power socket nowhere in sight, energy costs and the carbon footprint might just be the last things on a Windows PC user’s mind. Not the same is valid for battery life.

The conclusions of the study put IE8 firmly in first place, allowing end users to use laptops longer than!
