laptop in Aldi's

hi
did anyone get the laptop in aldis a couple of weeks ago
MEDION MD 98200 Multimedia Notebook
can anyone answer this for me
it has a connection box attached to mains cable, so if using mains you switch button to mains or switch the other button to use battery while still connected to mains 'so power is no longer from mains but battery'
i wanted to know is it alright to keep the battery in laptop at all times even if not using the battery power but the mains instead, so the laptop is always using mains power instead of battery power?
will it do damage to battery if left in
just that the booklet does not say if using mains power to take battery out
'hope i have made sense' :-)
thankyou

    I always leave the battery in my laptop when using from the mains. This ensures that the battery is fully charged.

    For more info/support on your laptop go to this forum. It is an unofficial support forum for most Aldi/Medion PCs.

    Hope that helps
