That's why you should run from the battery until it runs down at least once a week or so
I believe this is wrong. Lithium-Ion Batteries actually suffer from complete discharge cycles.
Any references? This is an important topic.
I know that when I had battery problems (quick discharge), Toshiba tech support told me that the way to ensure that the LiION battery didn't get a "memory" was to periodically run it through a couple of complete discharge cycles by booting a DOS floppy (no power management) and letting the laptop run untill it died.
