If all 100,000 readers of PC Pro shut down their computers down and turned them off at the wall overnight, instead of leaving them on, it would save enough electricity to power around 12,000 homes. And save you or your companies around £4 million a year in the process. So to help you, your colleagues or family remember to power down, PC Pro is once again offering our FREE Switch IT Off stickers.
The stickers can be easily affixed to PCs, monitors, printers or any other peripheral, providing a visual reminder to power down before you head out of the door.
We will provide up to 10 free stickers to each household, and up to 50 stickers to every business, school, college, university or other organisation. Stickers are subject to availability and offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
To apply for your stickers simply click here to fill out the online form.
Free PC wallpapers
If you don’t want to wait for your stickers to arrive or don’t fancy attaching a sticker to your stylish monitor, why not download our free Switch IT Off computer wallpapers? These can be easily installed in seconds and will provide an unmissable reminder. IT managers can also install our wallpapers as standard on employee’s desktops, giving them no excuse to leave their PC humming away all night.
When Lexmark carried out a survey of UK offices in 2004, it found that a fifth of all documents printed were lost on desks, left on printers or simply binned within five minutes. This waste, it estimated, was costing UK businesses a staggering £230m a year, a figure expected to rise by 20% every year thereafter. To help counter this, weíve created wallpapers (which you can customise with your own company logos) to act as a constant reminder against unnecessary printing.
You can download our wallpapers in the resolution of your choice below:
To install the wallpaper, simply save the image to a convenient location, such as your desktop. Double click to open the file in Windows Picture and Fax viewer and right click Set as Desktop Background.
PC Pro would like to thank VeryPC for sponsoring our Switch IT Off campaign.
