[QUOTE="celica73, post: 741683, member: 37845"] The 9600M will work fine on battery power, it just will drain the battery faster. You will have no issues unplugging it while it is running. Did you read something that tells you otherwise? I've already seen benchmarks on battery life comparing the 9600 to the 9400 GPU on the same machine (can't benchmark battery life if it's plugged in). The difference was about 30-40 minutes while running a DVD in the DVD drive. Scott [/QUOTE]
