Yes, I know that AMDs are battery hogs, which is why I'm going for Intel. Admittedly, i7 quad core isn't much better, but with a 12 cell battery, progress is progress. Now I need to see how my student loan money is distributed to see how I can pay for it...
Edit: How are you able to discern the conditions my battery is under based on the information given? There probably are some tweaks I could do to squeeze a few minutes out of it, but those are still a few minutes. I have treated my computer well and the advertised life of the battery was false.
Regarding an hdd change, the computer was only 500 usd. A replacement like that would just be dumb.
And a netbook would be nice, but they are just too small. I have massive hands and a condition that causes muscle tremors, and typing on them is a joke.
