Eee PC Battery Test – 7 Hours, 29 Minutes
I was at an all-day seminar last week, sporting my Asus Eee 1000HE netbook. I brought my AC adapter, but I figured it would be a great chance to really test Asus’ claimed 9.5-hour battery.
I started the day at about 8:45am with a fully-charged battery.
When I decided to actually watch the meter, I tweeted that I had 93% left. The battery meter estimated 7:42 hours.

Legal Articles at Article Alley
I was recently asked to write a review of the legal articles section of Article Alley. Here goes!
If you’re not familiar with them, article sites are big warehouses of articles. Most of them cover every topic imaginable, but some sites specialize. Article Alley is a general article site with different categories.
