     brightness: powering the screen accounts for a significant fraction of a
     laptop power consumption.</p>
     <p>La maggior parte dei portatili dispongono di pulsanti sulla tastiera (o di scorciatoie da tastiera) per ridurre la luminosità.</p>

     <p>If you do not need an Internet connection for a little while, turn off
     the wireless/Bluetooth card. These devices work by broadcasting radio
     waves, which takes quite a bit of power.</p>
     <p>Alcuni computer sono dotati di uno tasto fisico per spegnerle, altrimenti è possibile usare una scorciatoia da tastiera. È possibile riaccendere la scheda all'occorrenza.</p>

     <p>La maggior parte delle applicazioni in esecuzione occupa poco il processore quando non viene usata. Viceversa, le applicazioni che spesso ottengono dati da Internet, che riproducono musica o video possono avere un impatto significativo sui consumi.</p>
