Enabling laptop mode to turn on speed step seems like it would be a significant cost savings, but unfortunately it really doesn't do much. The default stepping level is still very high on our machines (2Ghz machines drop to 1.6Ghz). This results in a savings from 2 watts to 3 watts on average. You can get custom software out there that allows you to set a greater stepping range, but unfortunately that isn't something built into Windows.

If you're at a networked environment then it's not possible to natively roll this out to all computers using a Group Policy as it's not support by XP. But I've found a way to do it thanks to an add-on service from the Energy Star Group.
