Just curious about this. I recently left the system in Suspend overnight, and when I opened the lid found I still had 95% battery life! I'm wondering if anyone has left the unit suspended for 48 hours or longer, and what readout they got. Since then, I haven't bothered powering down (about a week now) during the day - I just suspend until I'm ready to work, then charge as I go if possible. Also, in other news, I'm planning to install Windows 3.11 on this puppy, so any suggestions would be welcome. And I think Dave Ross said the Thinkpad Features program is 16-bit, am I remembering correctly? It'll work under 3.11? And I got a TDK 56k modem for Christmas, but I already misplaced the dongle TWICE, so I returned that puppy and am now using the USR XJ1560 to connect. Spookily fast folks, and comforting to know I won't have to upgrade again, since this is as fast as the phone lines can go :-) New Years Resolution, no hardware purchases during 1998 (I've *got* to keep a laptop longer than a year, this is getting ridiculous). I'd planned on getting the 560X 3Q 1998, but (as my editorial on my site mentions) I'm going to try this weird Electronic Amish type deal and see what happens. If things don't work out, well, the 560X is only going to be cheaper by then, right? epbrown ps: check my .sig, I sold my Kiwi and am down to Thinkpads only...
