Computers never fail to impress me. At least mine computers. They always have some new way of failing. For example, yesterday my old laptop (really a piece of crap now, but I use it as my desktop) started running only on the battery. Hmm, wait, why is my laptop running on the battery, especially when it is plugged into the power? This happened a few times ago because of the overheating. However, right after the start there is a little change of overheating. So what is the problem? Finally my power source broken down? Or maybe n-times patched connector? Well, I just shot down the computer and ... surprise ... the battery is charging. What the heck? I turn on the computer and ... AC power led just dies. Veeery strange. Anyway, it seems that my power source is half-broken and not able to produce enough voltage/current. Therefore, the laptop decides to go with the battery which is after 5 years almost dead too. A very unlucky combo...
So, my third option -- go without battery. It seems that this is the most promising solution -- when laptop dehibernates, it seems to be running without any problems. Except for the fact that it dies with high probability (which can be reduced by plugging out usb devices) during the dehibernation process.
