Plugging in Charger while Updating/Fresh Install
I'm curious if it is OKAY to not have the adapter plugged in while doing an Update/Installation of an O.S. I have done so many times before with my old macbook , and nothing series has ever happened since I always do a fresh install when I know that my battery is higher then 75%.
Even when I partitioned my hard drive for Leopard, it started at 75% and when everything was done, I still had about 40%~45% left. And When I install Vista, It only uses about 10% battery life.
Does not plugging in the charger messes anything up such as showing it's percentage/battery time left? Or is it a "just in case" kind of thing?
I'm just curious. Thanks.
