    Hi guys, just bought this notebook last week and did a initial charging of 8hrs. Need some info from fellow M100 owners..
    The Spec: C2D1.83ghz/w 1.5GB ram running on Home Vista Premium with 120GB HDD.
    I'd split the disk into 3 partitions. When unplugged, under normal web surfing(Not playing any music nor any video, no usb stuff attached, juz plain web surfing), I am experiencing a lower than expectation battery life of 1hr and 30min even thou I set to power saving mode via the Fn shortcut(I'm not trusting Vista Power Saing mode)

    Just wondering what's the typical battery life of M100 and whether my situation is a isolated case or not. The batt pack is a 6-cell anyway.

    Does it got to do with OS? I thinking of switching to XP to see whether batt life will improve or not.
