    Depends on what your doing.

    If you have the 63whr battery, then that means your power drain was 11.45 watts. This is reasonable if you have medium-high screen brightness and you're browsing the internet, listening to music and running some Office/IM programs; or browsing the internet and watching Flash video intermittently.

    If you're just browsing the internet, then watt should be closer to 8 watts and closer to 8 hours of life.
