[iBook] Newbie: age old question concerning battery

[Jay Hill]

Hi,

Check out this article http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html

Apple recommends charging and discharging a notebook's battery at least once
per month. 

And, while memory effects in modern batteries are much reduced from what
they were a few years ago, you will still suffer a loss in the charge a
battery will hold if it is not completely drained first, resulting in a
shorter battery life.

Hope this helps.
