You would think that a new user would be ignorant in advice but having to read that little book that comes with computer can open your eyes to a problem gone wild.  Laptops are not like your average computer,duh, you say, well lets explore the most recent differance...they are not meant to be left on or plugged in when not in use.. What could happen you ask? Well the news has been loaded lately with it, kaboom.  A battery source is much differant than a computer with an outlet source of power....good words hibernate,sleeping but still running. Take a minute to find out a wireless won't charge when off, so use charger at home while using and then you will be ready for that coffee shop hook-up.  Remeber to unplug when you shut off(not shut down-) and enjoy all those advantages the computer companies are giving you,and we won't hear about blow-ups, without solutions......
