[Hudlug] Semi-OT - Laptop advice, please

[Roger Greenwood]

Hi Anne,

Rubbish - you need the battery in to get it charged up, and to provide
UPS facility. All laptops will float charge the battery when on mains.

Best Regards,

Roger Greenwood.

I've never had a laptop before, so I need some quick advice.  I've been
told 
that I should remove the battery if I use it on mains.  Is this true of 
modern laptops?
