I've spent a week with my Dell M1330 and it easily gets over 5 hours on battery. But it doesn't have a discrete graphics card.

This is running Vista x64 with the 6-cell battery.

If you want something with strong battery life and a discrete card, you'd want an LED backlit screen, 4200 RPM disk, knowledge on undervolting your system, etc.

I'm in a conference where about 250 people have MacBook Pros. The most amazing thing about these people is that the MacBook Pro is like an extension of their body.
