+PowerTOP is a Linux tool that finds the software component(s) that make your
+laptop use more power than necessary while it is idle.  As of Linux kernel
+version 2.6.21, the kernel no longer has a fixed 1000Hz timer tick.  This will
+(in theory) give a huge power savings because the CPU stays in low power mode
+for longer periods of time during system idle.
