> underclocks from ~4.4GHz to ~1.5-2.5GHz when on battery (seemingly no way to disable this) digression: I believe there's no way to disable that because the laptop's battery is physically incapable of reliably supplying the necessary amperage at those higher clock rates. It's an 80 watt-hour battery for a laptop that needs a 200W+ power adapter. The battery can't drain that fast even if it wanted to.
