I'm still not sure I see the point of it. As far as I can gather, it simple makes web 2.0 services update to each other quicker.

On the laptop I'm on now (Dell Inspiron 1501) I used to have this issue. It would only happen when the battery completly drained. If I shut it off before it drained, I was fine. However, I could fix it by popping the battery in and out.

However, a few months after I got it I switched to Linux on it (Linux has been my main OS for years mind you) and I have never had the problem again. I always thought it was a minor hardware problem, but the reason Linux works may just be because it is killing the laptop with more battery remaining. I'm not sure.
