This month's issue of University Business discusses IT with Platinum Sponsors of the 2012 EAUC Annual Conference, Iceotope.

'Wouldn’t it be strange if we considered that a computer is actually one of the most efficient ways of turning electricity into heat and the computer portion is, in reality, waste?
