After following discussion on this list for a month now, I'm just wondering if there is TP701C/CS users who have the NiMh battery. How long can you work with it? I've used to 3+ hours with my current laptop without any power management, so the less than 2 hours promised for 701's NiCd battery doesn't sound very good. One more question. Can you adjust the speed of the procesor as a part of the power management system? And does it work properly, since the APM seems to be more or less unstabile in most laptops. Screen won't blank every time it should, computer doesn't hibernate/go to standby always, HD doesn't spin down etc. problems. If this sounds totally irrelevant for this list, reply me directly. Thanks in advance for information, because the user mailing lists seem to be the best way for decent information. PC magazines and such seem to be afraid to say anything bad about the computers they test, because they would stop getting free stuff from the companies... BTW, I didn't say it was a suprise that TP701 would be soon a discontinued model. I just remember what happened to Compaq Contura Aero prices last December, when it was announced OFFICIALLY as a discontinued model. J&R Computer World in NY bought the entire stock of Aero's from Compaq and started to sell it about 30% cheaper than any other store/mail order company around. The prices dropped from $1399 to $999 everywhere. Just wondering if Big Blue is doing the same thing with TP701's ;-). ###################################################### Same-sex marriages.
