member29098233 Posted August 16, 2001 Share Posted August 16, 2001 I use a pc, but when I go and use a mac at a friend's house, their monitors have a different way of taking care of saving energy. The mac can dim the monitor instead of going into a screensaver or a blank screen. It dims the monitor so that I can still see what is going on on the screen. I've seen programs for macs that does this, but is there a program out there for the pc, I can't seem to find any. Also, where is IE6??? Isn't it suppose to come out today?

mortensen Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 Why have it dim? It still uses more power than being off [which is what happens to most PC monitors after too long being idle]. Dimming sounds like a USELESS feature because if you are using the computer you would want the screen to be full brightness and if you're not then you don't need it to be on. -mortensenj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
