I've just bought my first laptop (Toshiba) and have received mixed 
messages on care of the battery (which I won't need to use very often). 

A guy who earns his living troubleshooting computers told me to 
routinely use my Toshiba not connected to electricity but to use it 
until it beeps then connect/recharge.

However, when I researched laptop battery care on an internet tutorial, 
the advice was to leave it plugged in during use.

Can someone please steer me in the right direction on this?

Thank you, Anne Neighbors
