I've had several laptops, both mac and pc, with a wide assortment of batteries. regardless of the machine or battery type the battery always seems to head south after about six months, failing to hold a charge and rendering whatever machine generally un-portable. now I've got a new ibook and I really don't want to kill the battery on this one.

any tips on maintaining and/or extending battery life?
