    Hi all, totally new here, I have 3 cf-28's, 2-PIII-800's, 1-PIII-600
    I've been following threads here about battery run time,i've seen it mentioned a few times that their battery shows 3 hours left,2 hours left,etc.
    I can only find the percentage of time by using FN+F9, where is this other runtime info found? Thanks Tyler

    In XP you go to control panel, power options and click on power meter which should show you. make sure you put a check mark in " show details of each battery". Mine shows in the bottom right once I unplug the power.
