As the title says really, what would the heat and battery life be like in a laptop?

Im guessing it would be extremely hot - or due to the newer lower nm gpus and cpus, has that sorted the heat issues out?

With a 8800m gtx in a machine, what sort of temp do you think you would see? Anyone know what heat you get in a 8600gt 8700gt and a 7950gtx?

Also what would the battery be like? Say if I was just wanting to be browsing on the internet, would it still be using the full power from my gfx card and stuff? The new alienware m15x has a thing called stealth mode where it reduces the speed to increase battery life. Can others do something similar?

Thanks guys, any help would be superb :)
