CDU (Connectix Desktop Utilities) is bundled with the Power Macintosh 8100/110, 7100/80 and 8100/100 and is licensed for use only on those systems. You can purchase additional copies for other computers you own.
CDU provides EPA Energy Star compliance for those computers by allowing the monitor to be dimmed automatically after a user definable period of idle time. Additionally, it can be set to power off the entire system after a user definable period of idle time.
A backup diskette for CDU can be obtained from Connectix by calling them at 1-800-950-5880. There is a nominal shipping charge for the disk.
This software is supported by 800-SOS-APPL but is limited to installation or removal and the functionality of the Energy Star features. All other questions should be directed to Connectix directly.
