At 4 hours, it's about an hour longer than most new laptops, which isn't enough to justify the considerably weaker performance. It's not TMTA's fault--microprocessors aren't the primary source of power usage in a computer (the LCD is)--but considering the cost/benefit ratio, I don't understand why anyone would buy one of these Transmeta-power machines. . .but what do I know?
