Hi,

Is it true that you can leave the new Macbooks plugged in with no consequences regarding degrading battery quality? I've heard they've got the ability to switch off battery charging and just go from line power thus retaining battery capacity.

I would prefer to just leave it plugged in on full charge when I'm at home as I play WoW a lot and the battery drains after an hour and i'd end up powering through some charging cycles in a day.

Thanks all.
