I have a Sony Vaio NR and I was wondering, is it okay for my laptop to be on my lap? Would it get too hot and then slow down the computer?
Also, I kept my laptop connected to the charger even though it was charged--would that damage the battery or decrease battery life?
Thanks!

I don't think keeping the charger in the laptop would damage the battery, but it might be better to unplug it every now and then! But what will damage the battery is if you leave your laptop on a desk or something and it gets too hot, it might make the battery leak or melt. (Same with the hard drive and fan inside the computer, if they get too hot, they can get seriously damaged!)
