Thanks again and again Fouchey!!!

Thanks Fouchey, I'll take your advice!

I hear some recommend running the laptop on power supply at all times while others say this will decrease lifespan of the battery. My question is which is best for the lifespan of the battery? To always run the laptop on power outlet while recharging the battery once every 2 weeks OR to run...
