Pehaps it would not save energy for the CPU. But I assume the CPU does
not heat that much when running with 500 MHZ or 1 GHZ instead of 2 GHZ.
So, perhaps it does not save the CPU-power consumptions, but it saves
the cooling devices + it saves on the long term the material. Saving the
cooling devices on a Laptop means in most of the cases to avoid fan-
activity ==> no power consumption on the fan => power saving.
I see it more or less the side-effect a reduced CPU-frequ has on the
overall system. AND therefore I would like to have it enabled.
