Well that sure was an issue, And I can say that you do have to tweak the autoscale settings to your own desire/needs...

My friend with a XV6800 had all 4 of the scale bars at different speeds, and indeed it ate his battery for breakfast and was starving by lunch...

With mine I kinda forced my PPC to stay under 416mhz with the fact it rarely needs to use over 60% CPU, But then again Im sure if I played worms world party for a few hours, It would have drained it pretty quick being at 520mhz
