wbmw, interesting that they didn't try the DVD playback using "maximum battery" mode. If you'll note the results from this old Anandtech chipset DVD playback test, you'll see that DVD playback shouldn't be all that stressful on these CPUs. Yes I know these are desktop scores, but they are on Duron 800s, with 100MHz FSB, after all. If you toss out the dog VIA chipsets, the worst CPU utilization is the Aladdin TNT2 chipset at 51-61%. I seriously doubt the mobile chipsets Tom's tested were less efficient power-wise than these desktop chipsets. Too bad Tom's didn't bother to try max battery or even tell us what the CPU utilizations were.
