    Can anyone who owns an MSI Wind (preferably a U100 like the ones you can get at Best Buy) let me know what battery life you get (and let me know if you have a 3-cell or 6-cell battery). Thanks.

    My wife gets between 1 1/2 and 2 hours mixed playing games and internet. She has a 3 cell with WinXP.
