I see that u upgraded ur RAM. Where u bought that? I'm thinking to upgrade to 1GB. Any suggestion?

wtm, now you know how cool ibm is. well i will have to bear with 2 v3000 until dual core 2 come to ibm with dvdrw as standard and ill join the ibm club back. miss my eraser head, thinklight, and 4h 45min battery. and the keyboard. haih.

do i need to take out the battery when the thinkpad is connect to existing power adaptor?

u need not, u can set the power manager to charge the battery only when it's at certain threshold

Mayb still safer to remove gua. 

Simple Guidelines

    * Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.

    * Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely.

    * Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level.

    * Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.)

    * Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices.

    * If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge.
