Which BIOS do you run?

I run 1.04 on my X60s, and it gets better battery life than 1.06, but the fan is always on. Does 1.09 fix any of this? Which do you run? Which is the best?

I'm using bios 1.04 now because I want the better battery life. I have noticed more fan use and would also like to know if there has been an improvement from 1.06 to 1.09 to increase battery life.

Also, does it put more wear on your computer to run 1.04 or something?

Never used 1.04 so I couldnt tell you.

I guess ill try it out one day.

Hell since I got the computer its been plugged into the wall. School starts on sept 5th. The first official day ill use it unplugged and we'll see.

Better to get a real world use comparison.
