Microsoft was considered to have a monopoly (whether you or I agree). As such they were subject to different rules. Apple, especially when iPhone launched, did not have any kind of monopoly on cellphones nor did they have one on PDAs (which

On my dual GPU MBP the biggest thing I do to get battery is use gfxCardStatus to force the MBP to use the integrated GPU only. Of course I do graphics and game related stuff but for example having Unity3D open but idle will keep the MBP in
