thanks Ibraham.  What happens after I press the F2? or is it all 
self-explanatory once it is being done?

  Hi.

  Battery life depends significantly upon what your doing.  You may find that 
turning down the brightness, turning off the backlight and using your computer 
for light tasks such as word processing, email and internet browsing rather 
than for multimedia applications will extend the battery life significantly.  
Also, if you use the internet and are using a hard wired connection, turning 
off the wireless facility will help as well.  If you still feel the battery 
life isn't satisfactory, you might like to consider doing a battery calibration 
test.  This test will determine how well your battery is performing and how 
accurate it is reporting remaining capacity and charge.  You can do battery 
calibration through the system setup screen you reach through tapping F2 before 
windows boots.  You will probably need sighted assistance if you can't see the 
screen without magnification.

    I have read for the past couple of weeks how everyone gets so much time out 
of the battery on the NC10.  I am using mine on battery this evening for the 
first time and trying to see how much I can use it before having to recharge.  
I would say I will have no more than 3 and a half hours.  Now what has everyone 
done to make the battery life longer?
