Lucky Lucky I ordered one last thursday also, but no indication that its moved out of boxing so far. I figured they had shut down for the holiday.

I recall there was a "Reduce bit depth while on battery power" option in the driver somewhere (maybe powerplay settings?) Its worth a shot to check.

There is one more difference too, that I have noticed on my machine. My 5672WLMi came with 2GB DDR2-533, instead of DDR2-667. I even opened up the bottom to verify the label on the chips themselves, and its true. However the 120GB hdd...

I've got the Aspire 5670, and mine gets 1620 in 3dmark2005 also. Pretty remarkable for a 4-pipe GPU, but kind of a shame since ATI has done away with their 8-pipe mobility offering with the new series... hopefully I can find an...

Some of the older compaqs that myself and friends have owned in the past have been pretty horrible build quality and have used some of the cheapest parts, but the V4000T I recieved yesterday is quite different. The machines' base and...

Hmmm, this must be a new policy for them. I'd expect something like this for a shuffle, but the nano and up should come with some kind of wall charger. My old 10GB ipod came with a nifty ibook like wall charger. It made use of the...

An individual battery cell can only be charged/discharged a finite amount of times. It sounds like the circuitry on your primary battery isn't using a very good algorithm to spread the charge cycles across all of its cells, and a couple...

I already know that the new Powerbooks will not be appealing. They will probably end up using the same new 15" HD display that has an interlacing lines like issue. It will be even more funny if Apple only introduces the iBook and...
