Jim and I have been wondering about this for awhile now.

2. Sometimes, Jim will leave his laptop "on" and plugged in -- even when he's not using it -- for days.

3. Sometimes, I will leave my laptop in "hibernate" (lid closed) and plugged in -- for hours (sometimes days) at a time.

We wanted to know if we were weakening our laptop batteries by doing these things, so we went to the experts...
