College Kids and Their Batteries

Maybe it's just me, but I can't help noticing how nearly every single college student I see here on campus or around at the various coffeeshops in the area has to have their laptop plugged in. Don't they know that their computer has a battery?

I realize that sometimes they're working on a really long paper or something and need to be using the computer for a long time, but a most of the time I would guess the people that I see aren't going to be there (and using their computer) for the around 2.5 hours that their battery would last.

This is really a minor thing, I know. But it's kind of thing that I've started to notice and really wonder about. Perhaps I'll never know...
