Hi Eric, Rugxulo,
Short answer: CPU idle ratio is still (reported as) about 50% on
notebooks.
Now the details.

Please tell us a little more about the specs of the notebooks / desktop.
Does this also happen with a clean boot (no drivers loaded)?

Hi,
In my desktop computers, FDAPM usually reports very high percentages
of CPU idle time. For instance, with the Aurora editor, which I use
for hours every day, a typical figure is 98-99% of idle time.
However, in both my notebooks (IBM ThinkPad and Compaq Armada, from
1999) this number is usua
