How much battery life does the unibody 15Inch MacBook pro get?

How much battery life does the unibody 15Inch MacBook pro get while surfing the web at DEFAULT LIGHTING SETTINGS? What about watching a video? What about a word document? What about playing a game?

Which revision of 15" MBP do you have? The newest ones I think get a documented 7 hours.

I get around 6 hours and 15 minutes with web surfing, email, and iChat. Screen is about 3/4 brightness, Bluetooth off.

Default brightness is at 100%. You'll watch to turn it down a few notches.

Mine is 2-4 hours in my 'normal usage'. I have the first model with the removable battery.
