Actually, I got my new iBook (Be jealous!) to go about 5:43, *functionally*
off of battery, so don't laugh too hard at those numbers.

By functional, I mean I had the screen turned to about 75% and I was running
CodeWarrior.  I'm really quite impressed with Power Manager 2.0, I think
Apple's finally got this battery thing figured out.
