    How many cells is the battery that comes with this laptop? How many hours is everyone averaging with it? Thanks.

    Read Kilim's 5760 Review

    His review is for 5760 model, which is the same chassis as the 5750, but with minor upgrade differences.

    The battery should be 8 cell. and I think it averages 2 hours with LCD on and on full brightness.

    The 5750 should get longer battery life than the 5760 due to the lower video card.
    Although I think the 5750 comes with a 6800 now, right? so it might not make that much difference.

    I get about 2:15 out of my 5760 just surfing the web wireless.

    The 5750 still comes with either the X1600 or 7800GTX, I've never seen it with the GO6800. The 5750 should get a significant amount more battery life than the 5760 because the 7900GTX sucks up a significant amount more power than the X1600, however, I'm not sure if it'll be much more than possibly around 3 hours. It could be like the DV8000t and get around 4 hours, that'd be very nice, the ideal situation, but I'm not sure. I've not seen any reviews for the 5750, though it is on my list of considered notebooks, so, you may see one in the next couple months.
