Hey guys,

If I am using my MBP heavily for home desktop use, to preserve the longevity of the built-in battery, is it better to just keep the MBP plugged in to an outlet at all times or allow it to completely drain after each full charge? Thanks!
 
You can keep it plugged in, just calibrate it once in a while (every months or so).

Also MRoogle has thousand of threads regarding that question.
