I fully charged until the battery indicator showed green then left it for 9.5 hours, booted it to quickly check the charge state then suspended again, plugged in the power adapter then timed how long it was before the battery indicator went from orange to green (about 20 minutes) ... I assumed the charge/discharge ratio (eg. N where you can run the libby for X minutes then charge for X*N minutes and end up at the same state of charge) stays the same throughout the charge cycle of the battery ... is this a valid assumption? - Raymond --- /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?" | | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.
