I have a MacBook Pro purchased in mid 2010. It has a solid state drive. Running Snow Leopard, I can get 10 hours of usage. For the short time I had Windows 7 installed on a BootCamp partition, I kept getting the message that my battery has around 4 hours from a full charge. I never got the chance to really test out how long the battery will last running Windows 7. But I'm sure it is less than Snow Leopard. I say Snow Leopard because I'm also sure that Lion drains my battery faster than SL.
