i have a question. k so i just got a mac, and the ppl at the aaple store said that my macbook would provide 10 hours of battery life on a full charge , well on a full charge the longest the battery has lasted is 4 hours. why is that? am i doing something wrong?
@khantast1c, the brightness of the screen will also heavily affect the battery life. If you're using your macbook at full brightness, don't expect a long life. But if you drop the brightness by alot and don't use too many programs (and processor intensive programs at that), you can extend your battery life per charge.

Thanks. I never thought about turning off bluetooth but it does save some power!

Do you use Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard?

the graphics thing only works if you have the better video card. it doesn't work if you have other macs, ex. my 13 inch macbook pro (june2009)
