.
so the other day i storm into the apple store in a righteous froth of indignation--my new toy's giving me less than half the battery life they promised and i wanna know why, goddammit.
genius: have you changed your "energy saver" settings?he turns the machine toward him, flips it open, pushes a button, snorts, pokes the genius next to him, says, "get this--guy's got 17 windows open and he's wondering why his battery's dying."
mkf: no.
genius: you're keeping the screen at no more than 3/4 brightness when you're on battery?
mkf, scornfully: yes.
genius: you turn bluetooth off when you're not using it?
mkf: of course.
genius: are you watching movies at full volume, running multiple programs or doing anything else that requires a lot of processing power?
mkf: nah, i'm just surfing the web. i'm tellin ya--there's something wrong with this thing, and i want a new one.
oh.

Seventeen windows all of web surfing...well one was your I-tunes. That sounds to me like you are easily distracted.
noblesavage: you don't know the half of it.
