    I'm going to be receiving a 14.1" T61 (766416U) with a T7300 (2.0GHz) processor, discrete Quadro NVS140M graphics, Windows Vista Business and a 6 cell battery.

    I was wondering what kind of battery life I should be expecting with this setup. From what I understand, I should be able to get about two hours of regular web browsing (WiFi on) if I lower the brightness on the screen and use some battery saving features. It's hard to tell exactly how much battery life I should expect because the CNet T61 had integrated graphics and the unit tested by NotebookCheck only had a 4 cell battery.

    Any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
