    yeah I was told not to bother. IN fact AW recommended getting a spare normal 6 cell but I wanted two batteries in at once (and don't use my cd drive much) so I got another 6 cell in the swap bay. I get 3-4 hours now roughly

    a tool for mounting virtual drives with .iso files from your hard disk. which effectively eliminates the need for an optical drive ;)
