>it shows how ridiculous this is Does it? If the other comment is to be believed, this law bans high end PCs which use more than 11W while in sleep mode. This is an absurd amount of power to draw. Most devices use less than 1W in sleep mode. Using so much power shows extremely inefficient design. If this law can cause companies to fix their buggy firmware this could result in a massive power savings with virtually no effect to consumers since these devices never should have been using so much power anyway.
