[P1] fresh installs and not responding to power button

[Cameron Miller]

Battery usage is good - 4 hours or so. I've got nothing to compare it 
to however as I got the clamshell for free about a month ago. The guy 
I got it off had taken it to his Mac shop and had them install 
Panther and the extra RAM before mailing it to me (in Australia) from 
England. It arrived 2 days before I hopped on a plane to go to the 
States. The hard drive is a bit small but what the heck. I might see 
about getting a larger drive when I'm back in Oz.
