Hallo!
I'm planning purchasing a centrino based laptop (Acer TM 290)... but I'd like
to know if the 5 hours battery life Acer announces are real in a linux
world...
Has any of you got a centrino based laptop? If so, could you tell me how long
does the battery last?
Of course I know it depends on real work, but it is going to give me an idea
;) F.i. my HP Omnibook 6000 lasted 3 hours, and my actual laptop, a HP
Omnibook XT1000 lasts about 2,5 hours... and I'm not compiling the kernel ;)
Thanks!!! ;)
