Hi,
those of you with 10.5.7, open System Preferences. Which version of the icon do you get? I have two machines showing different images.
To the left, my Mac Mini. To the right, my Mac Pro. The Mini is showing a low energy bulb.

Both my Intel Macs have old style bulbs. The Mini, which is a G4 model, has the twisty kind. |

It was changed with the unibody MacBooks last autumn, IIRC, but as the above comments show, its appearance is unpredictable. I’m thinking it may be installed with Combo OS X updates, but not if you update sequentially. |

I only say that ’cause normally I update sequentially. However I recently did an Archive and Install on the iMac and a clean install on the iBook then ran the Combo to bring them up-to-date. That was when the new icon appeared for the first time on both systems. |

I've got the old-style bulb on my white MacBook, updated using Software Update, so this follows Simon's theory, non? Edd |

Sounds right, I've used the combo-updater more than once... |

A look on Google suggests this came in with 10.5.6, which was around the time Apple were playing ‘We're so green now’ card. |

The venerable Mr. Aughton is right again. After checking this Mac I have the twisty energy saver type bulb icon. Mark |
