    for those of you who have the gateway mx6421, what are you getting for battery life? any settings you note would be appreciated.

    i am only getting about 2 hours on mine, maybe a little over. is this normal?

    i get about three hours just using word and such, maybe listen to a song or two. depends on what you run. Games and continous music will give me about 2.
