	I have, in fact, gone the other way... I had installed the 10.3 
preview shortly
after it's announcement, and my battery life instantly went from 4+ 
hours per charge
to roughly 2-2 1/4 hours. I've reset all manner of settings I can think 
of, but nothing
has brought that count back up. I've since re-installed 10.2.6, but 
have seen no
change... any ideas?
