Can somebody give me brief summary on how FreeBSD
interacts with so-called power-saving feature-ettes
on laptops?

I am suspecting that I get less (apparent) time per
battery charge on UNIX than on Windeath. I am also
suspecting this is because you have to actively frob
the CPU to tell it to [drop clock|drop volts|slow down]
etc.

Clue density -1!

(sorry)
