True it's somewhat of a power hog however Vista has some really cool features that I really like. I just recently installed Vista and I also noticed that it drained my already short lived internal laptop battery even more. My solution to the problem was to pickup a Portable Power Station from batterygeek.net which is now giving my laptop an additional 20+ hours of runtime per charge. For me it's an ideal solution because I can also recharge and power my cell phone, PSP and iPod Video with it.
