    Right now I am testing my 1520 with loops of 3dmark2001.

    Started at 10:26..its 11:40 now and it's still going! I wonder how much life its got left! Going to just keep it going til it runs out.

    I know 2001 is less stressful as 2006, but IIRC 2006 doesn't have looping in the free version (someone affirm/correct me on this please!)

    Ok it just put itself to sleep. 12:03

    So @ 100% it was 10:26am
    It stopped at 12:03

    So that was a total of 1hr 36minutes looping 3dmark2001 with everything on max speed and brightness! This is the 9 cell....that's pretty good!

    I am running vista. I will give it a full 48hours charge before I do something more intensive. Probably Orthos with 3dmark2006 LOL. That's gotta be full out usage.
