are much smaller than my 2004 Crucial Gizmo 256MB (and it is pretty small)

Glad to hear, looks like a nice stick.
I just ordered another San Disk Titanium to replace the one I lost. I
really love the ability to slide the USB connector back into the case to
keep it out of harm's way and I'm always losing the end caps that normally
come with USB keys.
Brian,
I did think about the slice back inside feature. In the end, I decided
this was another mechanical improvement I could do without. I accept the

Don't forget drives are 1,000,000 bytes per gig, and files and Windows
report a gig as 1,073,741,824 bytes.. :)
Both ended up at 1.918GB free space. I do not have any tools
to look for hidden partitions so I'll just write off the 82MB difference
as mfg. tolerance at this point. :)
Whoops, left out a set of zeroes.
1,000,000,000 is what I was supposed to type. :)

I have a client that has a main concern of battery life - He wants 4
hours of use. I was wondering if anyone was aware of a site that
rates laptops like this from the different makers? OR better yet, some
real life experience advice for me?

Yes, John,
That subtle thought did occur to me! So, far, so good. The Corsair
Voyager is a good choice.

Joe,
ATM I do not have a good answer. It seems that you now have to focus on
batteries that might work with your client's laptop. JMHO.
With motorcycles, I have had excellent service from Yuasa and Exide (sealed
AGM).
Just now, I am now using PowerSonic (gell-cell) storage cells in my UPSs.
Try the Cnet laptop reviews. They do some pretty good tests on the real
battery life of the notebooks they test:

I also like the reviews on this site:

Correction to our issues with the power supplies.
The rest of them are going strong.
Turns out we had a dying K7S5A that was killing power supplies (even a
little smoke, etc).
Moved to the A64 board, and the rest of the K7S5A boards, and they are fine.
