7.8 lb widescreen Athlon 64 notebook with ATi 9600

[BargainSeeker]

Anyone interested in a 7.8 lb widescreen notebook with an AMD Athlon 64 CPU and ATi 9600 (aka M10) graphics? See the Arima W730-K8 DTR notebook shown here:

Personally, I'd rather trade some performance for much better battery life. Therefore, the Gigabyte N601 and Arima W620 notebooks also shown here are more interesting to me.

All of the Pentium 4M chips are killing this particular machine's battery life. Everything but the W620 has a 3 hour and less battery life. The two fastest models even are even rated at just 2 hours !!:Q
