HP to release a Laptop that can run for a day in battery

Hewlett-Packard will be releasing a laptop which can run for twenty-four hours on a high-capacity battery. The laptop will have to be run on Microsoft’s Windows XP, since Vista, has some power-draining problems.

The Laptop will have a LED display instead of LCD. This will add four hours of battery life. The laptop will also use an Intel Solid-State Drive, which is reported to make batteries last 7% longer than they would if information were to be stored on a rotating magnetic disk.
