Leave laptop battery inside?
I just bought an Inspiron 1300, should I leave the battery inside or take it out? I use it on AC 99% of the time. Will the battery die faster if I keep it inside or are Li-ion batteries immune to this? I'm just worried it will keep charging the battery and wear it out.

Initially recognizes a USB connection but refuses to read disk. Have tried it with a single…

If I can't connect it to the TV at the same time as SKY, could I get…
