That's OK. I was in line behind some woman at the electronics store 
repair desk. The clerk spent, and I exagerate not, 40 minutes explaining 
that while a laptop computer *does* have a battery, one nevertheless 
needs to occasionally plug it in. And this is the icon that shows you 
it's plugged in. And if you put the mouse over it, it tells you how much 
it's charged. And if you take the battery out, and it isn't plugged in, 
you'll lose whatever you haven't saved. And it'll charge faster when 
it's turned off than when it's turned on.  And yes, when the icon says 
100% charge, it won't get any higher.

I suspect she takes the car back to the dealer when she runs out of gas, 
too.
