    I have to actually run down the battery from full to zero in ubuntu, but it seems like its sucking energy pretty fast. I have gone from 33ish% to 12% in less than an hour. I kind of expected linux to lack the battery life that win7 gives, but has anyone else also noticed battery life degradation or is it just me?
