Nickel-Metal Hydride battery

i've got a laptop (compusa, 400 mhz, 32 MB RAM) with a Nickel-Metal Hydride battery. I charge it to 100% and then just run it on battery power. well , it only lasts for about 45 minutes on battery before it gets to 10%. Is this normal. I realize its not a Lithion Ion battery and won't last as long. I need to tell my boss something by tomorrow. I think he expects it to run on battery for 2-3 hours. I've put the same battery in another compusa and pretty much the same. I've used diff. batteries on another compusa, same.
