Does anyone use it, or like it? I find it to be a bit annoying.

I find this to be a case WinXP's built in power-management is superior to a specialized piece of software. XP's info button that shows the charge left in the battery is much better than the "5mins" power which Powerchute always says I have (and isn't entirely accurate).

I guess i'll be the first:
I like powerchute, it give some neat information.
Regarding XP's power-management, I wouldnt trust what it says, just because its "generalized", whereas the APC software was developed specifically for the APC products.
