Laptops should have a five hour battery life, so you don't have to sit awkwardly and uncomfortably next to an outlet playing on Facebook and computer games, amirite?

Mine's a Samsung and has a seven hour battery life.

I have an HP Pavilion and it's only three hours. :(

Wha--do you have a Mac? How short is your power cord that this is a serious problem?

macs have a roughly an 8 hour battery?
