Three power plans are pre-defined for you:
•
Balanced - This is the default power plan which
balances performance and battery life.
•
Power saver - This power plan sacrifices performance
in order to extend battery life. Use this plan if you will
be away from AC power outlets for an extended period
of time. Your programs may run slower than you are
accustomed to under the other two power plans.
•
High performance - This power plan sacrifices battery
life in order to gain performance. Use this plan if you
