    What kind of runtime can be expected from the larger battery? Also, is the keyboard sturdy - i.e., minimal flexing when typing?

    Thanks,
    Harvey

    Recently got an M65 and the keyboard's great, with no flex. I used a ThinkPad T40 for a good long stretch, and I'd say the M65 keyboard is equal. I have the 6-cell battery, which lasts about 2.5 hours.
