Another moral to the story is to stop working when the battery approaches zero. Seriously.

I would put it another way: Under normal circumstances it's unacceptable to have data loss because the system runs out of battery power. The OS should perform a controlled shut down or go into hibernation well before that happens.


I'm a bit confused by this. My laptop throws up a warning when it's nearly out of power and if you still leave it on, it goes to sleep after a few minutes and will not turn back on until it has been plugged in. This happens to me all the time on the airplane while watching movies. There's never any data loss. When I get to where I'm going, I plug it in, open the lid and everything is fine.

The power only completely dies if I don't plug it in for a long time (a day, say) after it has gone to sleep.
