[GLLUG] the battery-less laptop

[Scott Harrison]

Hi GLLUG:


Just wondering if there are any possibilities for
purchasing a laptop that can run without its battery
(just working off of an AC adaptor).  I have not
yet encountered a laptop that does this, but imagine
that they have to exist.  (Custom-rigging a solution
with the right electronics would be achievable too
of course.)


For a laptop that is used like a desktop, and if the
batteries go bad, or if it becomes old (screen dies, etc)
and becomes a test server, it seems that being able
to run batteryless would be a helpful feature.  (Thanks
for any insights!)


Regards,
Scott
