About every 500,000 miles, I buy a new car. My latest, has a 4 cylinder engine with the same displacement as the one I bought 40 years ago, except it’s more efficient with 25% better mpg and 50% more horsepower. My old Pentium 3 computer used 120 watts of power according to the journal I keep on my workstations and my latest quad core Celeron uses 20 watts while performing the same tasks. Are more efficient devices/mechanisms bad?
