How is the battery life on a 9 cell Battery on max power?
On Max power savings?

(Internet Office Programming DVD Movies) Not for games



I'm right about to order one of these.

Intel Core 2 Duo (T7200)(2 ghz)
2 GB Ram
256 MB Geforce go 7400
120 gb hd
8x dvd burner
intel pro wireless 3945 a/g
9 cell battery
xp pro

 

it all depends on the configuration and how you use it, gaming with a 7400 set to max performance on battery will probably net you one to two hours, watching video with the optical drive spinning probably around 3 to 3 and a half, routine tasks, web surfing,office work with wifi on around 4 to 4 and half, at max brightness you can take a good chunk off those tiimes, minal brightness will get you a little more, but not as much, those are just ball park figures and everyones milage will vary, rule of thumb, the lighter the load the longer it lasts, low drive usage, video down clocked to max power savings, and medium brightness on the screen will keep you going for awhile

 

search, been covered many times in many diff configurations and usage

 

You can probably get about 2hours but it really depends on what you running
