I am undervolting my T5250 to 0.95v and I am very happy especially run 10 degree cooler now. Battery status soft show 2:26 for full charge.(6 cell)

I am also thinking to get Penryn.
thanks, i am running the bios A10, and i will read the guide you recomended and evaluate the risks, and if i do it i will post my results here.

i think despite the battery power loss, that penryn has ben a wise decicion for me
