    I've tried searching for the answer to this but haven't been able to find it. I understand that with the epower management (part of the empowering technology or whatever they call it on Acer) that you can set the CPU speed from low to maximum to increase battery time. I saw this feature on an Acer notebook with a Celeron processor. I thought the Celeron did not have speedstep technology (or whatever its called). Can the Acer epower program actually vary the Celeron speed and increase battery time?
