Anyone know the rules on taking Laptops on a plane?

I flew back from the US on Monday and had to take my laptop oout of the bag. Flew BA as well, and you don't get power points in economy yet :( Still squeezed a nice 4 hour Civ III session out of my little Eee though!!!
 
They often don't like you using it for take-off and landing, but in the air as long as you have the wi-fi etc turned off there's no problems. Unless the guy in front puts his seat down :(
 
That is above Apples claim for any laptop they sell, i used to get 3 or 4 tops out of the macbook - nearer 2.5 if using normal.

I've always seemed to get good batterys...

my original iBook used to last for 7 hours! I sold it to a mate, it's now 3 years old, and he gets 4hours out of it.
 
Only get about 4 hours out of my acer one with Arch Linux, everything turned off.

I fly BA every year ( i like their service) and have yet to see a laptop port in word traveller
