Re: [BLUG] Looking for a netbook

Honestly, I'm not sure. Usually I keep it plugged in, but whenever I
want to walk around the house, i just unplug it. It's never run out.
When I bring it to meetings, I typically don't even bring the
charger. I would guess that it'd go 3-4 hours, but I've never tested
it. someday I'll take it on an airplane and find out.

Note that this is one of the models without a HD. So, it's only 16G
SDD storage built in, although there's an external SDD slot too where
I have another 16G card. Anyway, I believe the only moving part is
the fan, so I think that helps w/ battery life.
