Since I hardly ever travel with my laptop, it runs almost exclusively on AC, rather than the battery. Does it make any difference if I leave the battery in place or remove it?

Which version do you have? I took a look, and version 4 seems to be best, AFAICT. Version 5 seems to have gone backwards, due to the fact that they reversed the fans direction. At least according to the review that I read. Actually I have a 3 that I got on closeout. When I was researching them ther...

Yeah, my machine averages about 18h a day, whether it's on mains or not. Of course battery life is shorter, but the fans don't worry me (just the people trying to sleep next to me :-) ) Bummer about the noise. I can't hear the fan on my laptop or on my chill-pad.

Thanks, anyway. Other than this problem I like the new forum. It's cleaner and seems better organized. Kudos to all involved. I just wonder where I'm going to get my Viagra from now on . . .

Hi. I'm suddenly confused about the whole "team neutral" thing. I read and thought I understood the information about not referring to team specifics in our postings. Yet I see people including team specifics in their signatures. Can you help this make sense to me?

Hi again to anyone familiar with my name. Being a "late adopter" I have just now gotten onto the new forum. I understand that the team threads have been eliminated, apparently due to recruiting, and probably other issues as well. Being "team neutral" must have its advantages. How...
