    Anyone have an XP app that tells me approx battery time remaining? XP seems to just show as a percentage.

    [I tried to use the HP battery utility but it crashes under .NET 3.]

    RMClock will show your battery life as approx time remaining.

    NHC seems to work well.

    Kinda overkill, but usuable. Thanks!

    What about on Vista? Any programs for that? NHC crashes and burns with Vista, but it was a great program to use with XP.
