There is nothing wrong with the pentium-m family powerwise, compared to 
the competition, simply because many people are able to run their TPs for 
4-5 hours on 9 cell batteries. I am one of those people.

Your unfortunate (to say the least) situation sounds like a rock solid 
ground for a warranty claim. The salesman claiming the 30 minute running 
time is passing a malfunctioning product for the real deal.

Contact Lenovo/IBM. The running time of 2.5 hours is unacceptable and *is* 
a manufacturing flaw (I think the only way of getting those number on my 
TP would be to run glxgears together with prime95 with everything else 
turned on).
