But the machine doesn't give any information about the state of the battery (apart from bleeping when it's almost empty). Now, I heared or read some time ago about a utility called Battery Watch, a TSR which checks your computer regularly and reports the "fill-level" of the battery. Who made this program? What does it cost? How reliable is it? Since it is a constantly active TSR: how much time does it cost? Have there recently been any reviews of it in a computer magazine? Are there any other programs doing the same thing? -- What are the answers on the above questions for those? Thanks in advance for any answers you may provide, Ernst de Ridder -- popa iret Qualitas qualitatem inducit.
