    ok im looking at geteting this tablet PC for travel and school, i choose the Chassis w/ ATI Mobility™ Radeon® X2300 HD 256MB PCI Express Graphics (128MB GDDR3 Dedicated Memory with up to 256MB using HyperMemory™ Technology, and when i was done custimizing it the thing said i had to have a 90 wat ac addapter for the ATI card, I know a card would require more power that an intagraded chip, so does this mean the 8 cell battery i choose wouldnt work without being pluged in? or is it simply that to charge the system requires more wattage, i dont know what the wattage is on the battery BTW.

    the 8 cells is the newest for this model (and some others). more powerful than the 6 cells. that is probably why the required upgrade on the ac adapter

    cheers ...
