I believe you're right I just got home, opened the box, grabbed the battery, tried to put it in but wait... There was already a battery installed. This computer came with two batteries. So I plugged it in, turned it on and my happiness changed to :O ... No picture on the screen. But silly me didn't realize the contrast needed to be adjusted. Everything works great! It is really one nice laptop. This one has an 80mb hard drive for me to load with tons of software and games I never tried before.

I do have a few questions

As I said, I got two batteries, but two different model numbers. What is the difference between M5654 and M5653.

It seems like I constantly have to adjust the contrast or it will "fade out". What is the cause of this?
