You say that it was upgrade, but I don't see what is was upgrade to, could you tell me? How much ram does it have, and how large a hard drive does it have? Do you know if these are Toshiba parts, or some one else? Did you get the original Japanise CD roms for it? I have one of the Toshiba 1100v, and with it at least, there was/is enought Toshiba specific hardware, that you really need the 4 factory CD to reinstall it, and even then you are not getting all the features that you paid for! Is the L1 a totally non Toshiba feature computer then? It truley doesn't need any Toshiba special drivers? There seems to be a very very large difference in the battery life that you are reporting, and what I understand Toshiba is claiming. I thought that with the large battery, that Toshiba was claiming something on the order of 12~14 hours of life. You seem to be getting the same kind of battery life that on can get with 1100v. As if it's special chips, make no or almost no real difference. As far as bios/drivers upgrade go, is there anything thing set up to get you thoes? I know with my 1100v (Dynamism upgade and support of drivers was worthless, IMHO.) For example they still do not have the Bios upgrade for it on there site, and I was told by them that for Japanise Computer systems Toshiba dos not normally supply BIOS upgrades, and if and or when they do it would require sending it back to Japan for it. I was also told that they were going to have a fix for the remote control driver for the 1100v which they seem to never have released. What software are you using on it for power managment?
