I second that. If you have an older computer, the batteries will run out much quicker. I will say though that if the batteries are running out that quick on a year old laptop, I'd question how good the battery is. If the "model" of the computer is older, they may have given you a battery they had sitting around. Batteries drain over time even if they aren't being used. You most likely still have a warranty, so I'd call and raise some hell and get it taken care of.
