This prediction is not so good
Dec. 14th, 2009 04:27 pmHere we have my laptop's running estimate of how much longer its battery can go:

Note how it gets stuck at 10 minutes left for more than 10 minutes. Paging through the graphs in this utility I can see that this is because the hardware stops reporting percent cell charge once it gets below 4%; also I suspect the hardware is wrong in calling the battery 4% charged at that point. But this is still rather sad.
