Your battery life should typically be about 70 hours of continuous
run.  That is running a program and about twice that long with just 
the display on.  It will be less if you use a lot of I/O or have
plug in ram cards.  The "six months to one year" estimated life is 
based on typical usage models; it seems that you are not typical.
