Easier to just run HardwareGrowler though, which is an invaluable tool for keeping track of events on your system (part of the optional installs associated with Growl) minimalmac: Do you have a laptop?

Do you really need that ticking countdown of unneeded stress? Here is what I do, I downloaded the free MiniBatteryStatus Dashboard Widget. Besides being in the Dashboard and thus not screaming at me “OMG!!! YOU HAVE 2 HOURS LEFT!!!”, it also has built in Growl notifications that let you know, gently, items #1 and #2 above.
