minus-squareBartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up5·10 hours agoThis is definitely the issue for batteries. Anyone who flies can’t have a battery larger than 100Wh.
minus-squareLumpyPancakes@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·10 hours agoMy Compaq Armada 1500c has dual removable batteries and a removable floppy drive. The batteries can be lithium or NiMH. The 800x600 active matrix LCD was a bit of a drawback as the years went by. Most of the websites I made back then are a bit small today.

Two batteries can be used at the same time, one of them hot-swappable.
minus-squareA_norny_mousse@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·12 hours agoThe T420 has dual batteries? Weird, my T430s (not recommended btw, but I got it for free) doesn’t have those. My x250 has dual batteries though.
