Every so often, I whine about how short the battery life has gotten on my Powerbook. It seems that each new revision of the system takes 15 minutes off the battery, and now I can usually expect only 2 hours or so from a fully charged battery.
Well, my Powerbook is currently running a developer build of the new system codenamed “Panther”, which is full of surprises. Mostly crashing surprises.
But today when I booted up the laptop, I realized that Apple had finally fixed the short battery life problem:
By my reckoning, I won’t have to charge my Powerbook again in my lifetime. It’s gonna run out of power in about the year 6088.
Now, let’s see Dell do that!
