    What's the average battery life on an M1210 with the 6 cell battery and integrated graphics?

    Does that sound about right to everyone?

    Yes, it should be around 4 (maybe slightly over 4) depending on what you do. According to this review it has lasted 4.5hrs for them.
    I can get around 3hrs & 15 mins with Go7400 under light load .

    This thread and the link I posted is about battery life with an integrated GMA950 (not with a Go7400 which reduces the life by roughly 1hr)
