The HDD wattage of the 7200 rpm is about the same as the 4200 rpm units so one would expect about the same battery life. IMHO the 7200 rpm louder noise level is objectionable in a laptop.

ScottC I agree that Linux is not suitable for you average end user, but GadgetFreak seems to be a more than tech savvy and happy with it, having moved over and only keeping Windoze for one app.
Personally, I use Apple Macs at home and keep an old dual boot W98 and SUSE Linux box for fun and the occaisional prog that must run on M$

I too am a "more than tech savvy" user, but in day to day life I just couldn't do without a Windows machine. Even simple things like syncing my Blackberry can't be done without Windows.
