Ok, I've got a related question. I just bought a new laptop (I haven't owned a laptop since my 133MHz model in college), and it's going to be sitting on my desk, not going anywhere 99% of the time. Should I be leaving it unplugged unless it needs a charge, or is it ok to leave the AC adaptor in all the time?
The first time I used it unplugged, it ran fine for an hour or so, then I noticed the battery was down to 50%, and my system was configured to "high performance". I changed the performance to "balanced", and a few minutes later I got a BSD and the computer rebooted. At the time, I had a few things running (Trillian, StarOffice and IE), but nothing really intensive.
