I've seen some articles and threads regarding how to extend batter life. I really don't intent to follow any of that advice. Here is my perspective. I bought this laptop to enjoy, and for me that means not paying attention to when I'm plugged in or not, running most of the time on battery and only feeling compelled to plug when I need to, or if a long running operation is occurring.
I understand that I will have a lower batter life and will have to replace it sooner for a couple hundred bucks. For me that trade off is well worth the freedom. But at the same time, the curiosity in me makes me wonder if I'm really giving up much battery life anyway. So I'd love to hear from people that pay zero attention to getting the most life out of their battery, how many years they get before making that trip to Apple for a replacement.
