i get about 2 hours of use on mine, it can take two batteries to double the life.
remember laptops arent all about running from batteries, they are also about being able to pick up and move elsewhere in a few minutes, very useful for contract programmers such as myself.
that said i ended up with 3, the sager/alienware, a hp ze5185 and a tr2a vaio, depending on what i have to do i usually end up taking the 12 lb monster since its got a real serial port, and ive been unable to find an add on serial port via usb or pcmcia that actually works the same.
yes it gets real hot, its noisy , but its fast, for serious software development its a must.
