<that's another argument for having a notebook PC as a desktop replacement....> Yeahbut (aren't yeahbuts great?) If you use a notebook for a desktop and keep it plugged in continuously, the battery seems to progressively loose its charge holding capability. Even the high priced new batteries do it eventually. You can (another yeahbut)usually get everything saved and closed out, and shut down ~ but for me, that's when the power comes back on. Charles Edit: Duh! I suppose you could remove the battery to prevent this loss of chargeability, but (still another yeahbut) then you might as well have a real desktop. Plus, it seems you get a lot more computer power for your $$$ with a desktop.
