Post the stats of the notebook.
I will try this and see what numbers I get.

The refresh didn't seem to make much difference, but the mobilmeter does show 11% used now, instead of 22%, lol, thats an improvement of sorts.

Yes, I have been doing some reading also and the word on the LiOn batteries is that they don't get memories like the NiMH batteries did and total discharge can even be a bad thing.
