    I read the review in the Notebook Reviews section, and on Battery Eater Pro the battery in the P-6831fx laptop lasts about 1.5 hours. Are there any better batteries for the Gateway that will last longer?

    This begs the question as to why choose a gaming laptop for battery life?

    AFAIK one of the flat, expensive, aftermarket extended batteries is your only bet. Or, buy extra batteries?

    I didn't get it for battery life, I was just wondering about it.

    Thanks,
