    battery life will depend on the application and the processor you have... i can sit and play games for about an hour or watch a movie for a good 1-1.5 hour... the averatec i posted they can play full movies on their battery life.

    Thats impressive, some of my older laptops with the big ass batteries and slow processor tend to last longer.. which makes sense.

    Battery life can last alot longer if you turn the brightness of the screen down....
    This makes a world of difference on my laptop. I have the celeron processor and it uses more of the battery then my friends laptop. He has the Centrino. I hope this helps.....
    I can use my laptop for about 3 to 3 and a half hours if I keep the brightness turned down. With the brightness all the way up I might get 2 and a half....
