Intel Processor Upgrades

INITIATIVE | 048 At Shaw, we realize that newer technologies are greener by design. That's just the way things are getting built these days and its great news. By simply upgrading our dated technologies, were improving our systems, creating efficiencies, and benefiting from better, greener design.

Shaw Information Systems is changing the standard desktop unit from a single-chip processor to a dual-chip processor. The new technology from Intel is faster and uses less energy to operate. With 2,500 new replacement computers planned for roll-out, we anticipate a reduction of an additional 262,500 KWhrs. Over the next three years, that adds up to a total savings of 787,500 Kwhrs!

And thats a dual-chip that helps everyone's Green Edge!
