    Hi, I have an IBM laptop and the model is R40e. The only thing that I am disappointed with this laptop is that this battery can only run about 2 hours.I want to change this laptop.

    I just looked up the R40E and all sub models use either the celeron or P4-M CPU of which both CPUs use lots of power, so 2 hours would be pretty normal. If you need long battery life a Pentium M processor is a requirement.
