Wal-Mart promotes green gaming has word that the retail giant has met with representatives of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo to discuss making console gaming more environmentally friendly. Topics included giving system lower power standby modes, and the possibility of reversing the recent evolution to plastic game packaging by returning to paper and cardboard packaging, with Wal-Mart saying that would reduce the industry's carbon footprint by the equivalent of taking 4000 cars off the road.

And judging by the quality of some of the software, I'm feeling somewhat good about that choice maybe you can design your own work flow management software. creo is not exactly keeping up with the demands of the industry. they dont have a product solution that can be used company wide. different departments like pre-media, manufacturing, planning, scheduling, sales and costing use different softwares that are not compatible with each other. information is entered into the system multiple times which increases the chance of human error and a ton of labor. but our biggest problem is their insite product which has an arcane web interface that is not user friendly. graphic designers and art directors used to having an intuitive interface are totally lost on insite.
