iBook battery problems

Along with getting a decent backup solution, a la my complete weekly clone. One of the other prime war of attrition I've been engaged in recently was to get the Maltese one to check the battery in her laptop for possible explosive habits - you know like a North Korean nuclear missile.

Well she was resisting, you see we've gotten ourselves in to a small competition about uptimes. My own fault really. Previously her iBook had managed nearly 30 days without a reboot and no ill effects - pretty impressive.

Well MTP relented and checked out her battery serial number, only to find out that the 14" iBooks are not effected and now her lappy has an uptime of a poultry...



and she's all bitter. My MBP is currently on...



Best i had was 14days then Software Update needed some attention and iTunes wanted to reboot. Parallels is a bit crafty when it comes to my uptime, it's a bloody conspiracy.
