The real solution for those people is to have the graphs enlarge fullscreen when clicked on.

I'm not seeing the power regression on my computers. My UPS automatically displays how much power my computer is using for the desktop and has always sat at 157 watts.
The laptop with an Intel Pentium M is not showing the increase in power consumption either. Full system idle is still the same as it has always been and that is 10 watts of power on a dell lattitude D600. With minimum brightness the laptop uses 13 watts.

A: The graph colors suck... period.
B: It's bad business to insult your subscribers when they complain about your product.

As I have said though in other posts, patches are welcome to improve the pts_Graph color algorithm. I actually made some improvements to it just this weekend but didn't make it for that article.Michael Larabel
