Mobile travelers rejoice, your battery woes may be alleviated, at least a little bit. HP announced today that you can get 24 hours of run time on a single charge with their HP EliteBook 6930p. The HP EliteBook 6930p was specially configured with an Ultra Capacity 12-cell battery, a power-saving Illumi-Lite LED display, an Intel 80GB SSD and Windows XP with the latest Intel graphics driver and HP BIOS. Phew, got all that? The battery life rating is based upon “an industry standard benchmark” so your individual performance may be significantly less vary. Versions of this notebook as configured with the low power Illumi-Lite LED display will be available starting October 2008. Now if they can just pack this power into a battery the size of a thick credit card instead of a 12-cell brick, then we really can rejoice!

    Wow, HP is really heating it up to take on Lenovo in the business market. I actually saw a lot of companies move back to HP because of fears of Lenovo. Lockheed Martin used to use Lenovos and then one day, they came in and replace every single Lenovo with an HP because they said that they had reason to believe the Chinese were capable of using the PC’s to spy.

    I never believed it. But LMCO did what they did to ease their fears.

    I have owned HP laptops since the late 1990s. I still have one of my 1998 HP laptops working as a print server and it’s own 24X7. They are a real beast, but what I love them the most is their 3 year warranty. A real life save sometimes.
