Some laptop manufacturers and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) are planning to work together on a consistent laptop power supply design.
The interest of the IEEE will be crucial to getting manufacturers to adopt any standards that emerge, according to reports in Australia.
The laptop makers involved in the plan are said to include big brands such as ASUS and Acer as well as the OEM manufacturers like Quanta and Compal.
By introducing standards to the laptop market the group hopes to facilitate the interoperability that has been a trademark of desktop PC designs.
This lack of standards in laptop manufacture has lead to the provoking situation where every firm has its own power supply design.
