    I've got a T42, and I was wondering, if I wanted to improve battery life, replacing the current processor with a ULV Penitum M would be of no benefit, correct? I mean the TDPs are lower therefore should use less power than the regular Pentium Ms because of the lower frequency but if they're running in battery mode at the same frequency, and you down volt the regular pentium M to match that of the ULV, the ULV should have no advantage, right? And when you undervolt the regular Pentium M PAST that of the ULV P-M, then you'd actually use even less power than that of the ULV, right?
