- I really like the fact that on a Powerbook (like my 140), Superclock puts
- a battery icon in the menu bar, where the stopwatch appears when you are
- timing something. This battery icon appears 'full' depending on your battery
- life; it is a solid black battery when my Powerbook's battery is full, for
- instance. However, I've found that it is inaccurate;y it seems to appear half
- full when the battery is nearly gone. It's as if the scale were halved and
- put in the upper part of the battery. Is this a problem for anyone else?
- I'd love it if it were really functional. I'm running Superclock 3.9.1.
