The Latitude with Attitude sucks up batteries too. Tomorrow while I am on the road will be a good test to see how long the dual batteries really last! The go even faster when I am running my wireless network card. Oh well, it's a beautiful machine. And the monitor … it's HUGE! There are always trade-offs though.

I guess you've read my horror stories with the Dell batteries (in 18 months I've had 4 quit working altogether) and power supplies… Hope your fate ends up being a lot better! Good luck!

My 7500 has a 14″ and the battery lasts about 4 hours. Unfortunately the battery weighs about 6.24 tons. I'm really curious to get a read on the new ones. I was thinking of upgrading since this thing is just so damn heavy. On the bright side if anyone ever tried to mug me I could brain them with it.

Good to hear your computer showed up. I've got an Inspiron 5000 and it fairly drains the batteries too. It's the price one pays for a 14 or 15 inch screen.
