At CeBIT 2008, the world’s biggest computer fair, popular topics included Green IT, mini-PCs, and open source.
Going “green” was already a popular topic before CeBIT, but this computer fair emphasized the green theme with green flashing lights and green clothing for pavilion staffers (Figure 1). Hype or no hype, all the major league vendors jumped on the bandwagon, with Fujitsu Siemens’ zero watt display, Primergy’s low-power industrial standard servers, and Blade-Frame’s 400 systems running RHEL 5.0, SLES 10, or Windows.
