Microsoft: IE9 best at sparing your laptop battery

[jamescv7]

After some real-world tests, Microsoft has concluded IE9 is the most energy-efficient of the major browsers on the market.

Microsoft compared its new browser with Opera 11, Firefox 4, Chrome 10, and Safari 5 on an Intel laptop, measuring how many watts the machine consumed with the browser idling, showing a news site, and running graphics-intensive Web tests.

Wow, this is surprising to me i would have thought chrome or Firefox would have a better energy saver than IE

I would rather let my browser use some more Watt than being hacked through IE that uses less Watt.
