Benefit of ThinkPad Power Manager?

#1 Post by elee532 » Mon Oct 18, 2010 3:46 pm

Is there a description of the benefits/functionality differences between ThinkPad Power Manager and the native power management in Windows 7?

Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply. More accurate battery information definitely sounds helpful. Is there somewhere that I can find more specifics regarding the options and settings offered over Windows 7?

Thanks.
