New Macbook Pros in Ubuntu --> How's battery life?

[supergrover1981]

Hi folks,

I'm about to replace my current laptop and pondering a Macbook Pro.

Battery life would be a very big selling point - does anyone have any battery life specs (or estimates) for typical Ubuntu web/email use? 15" specs preferred, but I'd be grateful for 13/17" as well.

Cheers

Hey!

I'm using it for developing and some internet and I'm getting about 3 hours with some tweaking as of described in this post:
