I've got a new notebook and have noticed that the battery life icon in the
bottom right corner of the task bar only fluctuates between 3 different
levels of charge. Is there a better way, or 3rd party application which will
give a better indication of battery life?
Also, is there any utility I can use which can give me a guestimate as to
how much battery life I have remaining in minutes, rather than as a
percentage? I've seen this on other notebooks, but can't seem to enable it
in any Power Management features of my Centrino.
Finally, any essential hints, tips and tweaks for a first time laptop user,
are greatly appreciated. Cheers.
