SL
<processor> Features of some Intel processors, including the Pentium, for
reducing power consumption. These features operate at two levels: the
microprocessor and the system. The processor can enter a low power state during
non-processor intensive tasks (such as word processing), or a very low-power
state when the computer is not in use ("sleep" mode). At the system level,
system management mode can slow down, suspend, or completely shut down various
system components to save energy.
