[QUOTE="Osiris22x, post: 31933, member: 3542"] EYPUFF, Go into your Energy Saver settings and use the custom setting, don't use the default as it's not very good. For battery settings I use the following, and get AMAZING battery life out of my Powerbook. Put computer to sleep after: 10 minutes Put display to sleep after: 3 mintes (dim at 1.5 minutes) Put hard disk to sleep when possible Processor Performance: Reduced Wireless: Off Bluetooth: Off BTW, I also recommend leaving processor performance on "automatic" when plugged in, instead of "Highest" as it will produce much less heat when doing simple stuff like browsing the internet or checking your email.

How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
