Do you ever stop and think about the resources that power your electronic lifestyle? Sometimes we look around at the stack of consoles and the computers and think, well ... maybe someday we should cut back a little(yeah, right). Well, the folks at Tom's Hardware are looking for ways to incorporate solar power in their gaming consoles, and we applaud their efforts. Apparently, they made a solar-powered Wii that wasn't fully dependent on the sun, and that just didn't seem good enough. They wanted something that really demonstrated what could be done to bring solar power to gaming, so they needed a different device. The answer? The DS Lite. We applaud their choice. You can, too -- just head on over there and watch the video.
