Re: A86: Re: power down
Much, much less. The screen is turned off by the <out (3), a>, so
there's a major power usage drop. The halt effectively shuts down the
processor and leaves it waiting for you to wake it up; in low power
mode it should use amounts of power that would only be noticeable over
long time periods, like, say, years...
