For mainstream business and consumer users, green PCs perform like other PCs. Dell's OptiPlex 755 earned a WorldBench score of 84--tops among the business PCs we've tested with Windows Vista. The HP rp5700's score of 67 was below average, but the PC scored well enough in other areas to rank third on our value business desktops chart.

Lenovo's ThinkPad T61p, which ranked third in our online desktop replacement notebook chart, earned a stellar WorldBench score of 81, and its battery life of 4 hours, 3 minutes is above average. The T61p produced solid graphics scores, thanks to its nVidia Quadro FX570M discrete mobile workstation graphics. Toshiba's Tecra M9, which we tested for our all-purpose notebook chart, earned a WorldBench score of 73--average for the notebooks we've tested--and an unimpressive battery life result of 2 hours, 48 minutes.

But until we can purchase solar-powered PCs, using an Energy Star-certified computer is the best way to reduce energy use and costs.

Note: For an interesting alternative to the essentially standard machines discussed here, see review of Zonbu's energy-efficient Linux-based mini-PC.
