Well said! Yea, the user have to be careful of their laptops. I got a Win95 NEC laptop at home and it is still runing well....I think it is 9 years-old right now.

IMHO, it depends more on how the user treats the battery. My old Fujitsu P2040's battery is still running well too, and it's not an IBM. But that's because I usually run it off AC power. So does my brother (who's using it now). Take a look at the BenQ notebooks we bought. Same notebooks bought at the same time. My battery health is still at 100% but yours is faltering a bit, right?

and mind you, I always keep the BenQ on A/C and while it's ok.. i feel that the batt is really bad and lousy. only one or two times drained and it wears off the charge already. WTF man. one or two times only. and this also becuase Highpoint took two bloody weeks to repair my machine. | |
