    How can I turned this thing OFF??
    I keep on getting this notification whenever I switched users. A little rectangular box towards the bottom right by the clock area just pops up once every now and then telling me that my battery needed to be replaced.
    I use my laptop without the battery lodged in, only with ac power cord connected so I'm not sure what it meant. This is pretty annoying to the least.
