    You should be entitled to a Windows Vista upgrade, but it depends on where you bought the notebook. It is best to telephone the place where you bought it, and confirm with them if you are entitled or not. Your battery life should be a little more than what you are geting now. You can obtain more by setting the brightness to a lower level and selecting "Max Battery" from Power Schemes. That should increase it a bit.
