Do you mean to ask what the battery management functionality is like (i.e. does the battery drain noticeably faster using OpenBSD)?

If so, I don't know what it's like on the MacBook or MacBook Pro, but on my Mac Mini, I can reliably say that the battery life is dismal ;-)

Possible typo? The Mac Mini does not have a battery.

That's why the battery life is so dismal.
No, no, that’s why the battery life is amazing!!!
It always does what I expect when I unplug it...
That mac /is/ going to run off the power stored in the PSU capacitors for a few (hundred?) ms after you unplug it.
