    Found this:

    "Retrofits

    You can make your present PC more energy-efficient by adding a retrofit that automatically powers down your monitor. The $69.95 Green Keeper form B&B Electronics (Ottawa, IL) is a hardware and software device you plug your monitor into. The $79.95 Monitor Miser from Technology Marketing Partners (San Francisco, CA) does the same thing when plugged into your keyboard. Berkeley Systems (Berkeley, CA), the makers of the popular screen saver, After Dark, has announced that they're developing a software-only product that will do much the same thing."

    Never let it get you down... unless it really is as bad as it seems.
