No Paul it is not! From your own post, <<The running time of a notebook computer using a 380-MHz K6-2, for example, was reduced by 12 minutes to 2 hours and 40 minutes.>> In an internal memo two years ago Grove said that Intel must stop the sharp increase in CPU power consumption or they will have to "hook it up to the kitchen sink" to keep it cool. The main reason behind the power budget of 9.5 Watts was the thermal management issue, NOT THE BATTERY LIFE. This is something that I know and something you apparently don't. Mani
