Any idea how long this particular laptop would run for off those AA
batteries? Thinking about this would actually be a good idea - carrying
around loads of (rechargeable) AA batteries, seeing as the battery packs for
today's laptops are often primitively expensive. Well I suppose we can blame
Wintel for the power requirements of today's laptops - I wonder if Transmeta
are planning any 'stunts' like that with their Crusoe chip!
