I'm curious too.

Every thread about always on laptops leads me to this question. People leave their laptops plugged in all the time.

I've run about 5 laptops 24x7 over the years for at least a year a piece. No issues.

I put an HP Envy onto a shelf in the garage, and the battery swelled enough to ruin the touchpad and case.

In all the laptops I have owned, the only problem battery was idle, unplugged and uncharged.

Being uncharged is actually pretty tough on the battery, for safety and longevity they're best stores somewhere between 40%-60% charged (that's why they come that way from the factory).
