There's a nice little discussion of APM in Scott Mueller's 
_Upgrading and Repairing PCs: Linux Edition_ (11th Ed.) and also some
other useful info about hardware specific tuning of Linux that would be
particularly useful for laptop users.

"We, too, who look upon the loom are deafened; and only when we escape it 
shall we hear the thousand voices that speak through it....  Ah, mortal! 
then, be heedful; for so, in all this din of the great world's loom, thy 
subtlest thinkings may be overheard afar."  - Herman Melville, _Moby Dick_
