[101010]

This page is actually one of those pages that was drawn out of chronological order. Last week’s comic, a37, is dated for 100721; this week’s comic, a38, is dated for 100821. Yes, it might just be that a took a month long break here, but next week’s comic is dated for 100723. I don’t actually think I’ve done this before (drawn story pages out of chronological order) Pieces, so I guess it’s a footnote worth mentioning.
So this post is kind of a followup to the x200t posts in d287 and d288.
I talked about “thin client” and “non-thin client” battery life tests in d287, and said that some nine hours for the TC test was probably ridiculous. Well, after noting battery usage for about two weeks though, I think I’m going to change my mind on that. For the thin-client test, I’ve averaged about 5.77 minutes per %, 8.71 minutes per WHr, or 9.61 hours total runtime on 6.88W.
For the “real” Internet test, I’ve averaged about 4.6 minutes per %, 6.94 minutes per WHr, or 7.67 hours total runtime on 8.6W. That figure might be a bit pessimistic.
This post originally had a “more” tag, but it turned out to be short. So nothing. This post was also written like a week before the post date. I’m going to write next week’s update now.
