    I just figured it would be a good idea for you, seeing as how I am sure you use light-bulbs and all and we could share. Take it easy my friend.

    Pretty cool, but I tried those crazy looking lights and I can see why they save energy...They're not strong enough...I'm going to take mine back and buy the brighter ones...100 watt equivalent my azz...

    Anyone seen any good sales going on for this yet?

    EDIT- You know, I was thinking about this, and I wonder why ALL energy-star compliant stuff isn't eligible. Stuff like flat-panel monitors and LCD TVs should be included. This would be good motivation for some people to get rid of their old tube televisions and monitors.
