SAVE ON THE SWITCH TO DIGITAL |

(NAPSI)-For 50 years, entertainment has been delivered to your television as an analog signal. Now everything is going digital. Beginning February 17, 2009, the U.S. will shift to digital-only television broadcasts. As of that date, analog TVs that use antennae will need a digital-to-analog (DTA) converter box to continue receiving broadcasts. By choosing an ENERGY STARŪ-qualified DTA converter box, you can save energy, save money and help fight global warming. Most home energy comes from power plants burning fossil fuels, which in turn creates greenhouse gas emissions that add to global warming. If all DTA converter boxes sold in the United States were ENERGY STAR qualified, Americans would reduce greenhouse gases equal to the emissions from 1 million cars. Look for the ENERGY STAR label when you're in the market for other electronic products, including TVs, DVD players, computers, printers and copiers. These products meet strict energy-efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and come with the same features and functions that standard products offer.
