    Thinking of getting a 1501 with the following specs:
    Windows Vista Home Premium
    AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 TK-53
    1GB DDR2 @533MHz (I'll probably upgrade myself to 2GB.. but not through Dell)
    80GB SATA @ 5400RPM
    Radeon XPress 1150 256MB

    What kind of performance can I expect? Is this at all useful for any gaming? What will the battery life be like with the 9-cell?

    Thanks!
