I have 3 questions that someone out there knows the answer too.
1) My hard drive is loud
2) My battery lasts less than 15 minutes in OS 10.1, less then 5 in os 9
3)Whats the date for macworld?
I purchased it ALMOST a year ago.. so phone support is up, but my 1 year remains.. what do I do?

Battery is toast. Send it back. Get a new one.
Call Apple and tell them before your year runs out.

Try resetting the power manager. That might work to increase your battery life, but 15 minutes is utter garbage.
