> Windows probably has at least one person dedicated to making battery life better
I think that person works for the hardware manufacturer, and wrote the Windows driver. I think that the likely problem here is that "Linux certified" just means that there are no showstopping bugs, "equal battery life to Windows" isn't a metric anyone is shooting for. I keep hoping that someone (maybe System 76 of Valve?) will take Linux hardware support REALLY seriously and get show what can be done.
