    I usually kept my battery outside of my notebook when on AC power because batteries don't like heat. I also found that the battery would sometimes cause my laptop to have higher temps (problem with a particular model, not will all laptops)

    Of course, if you have a reason that your AC will suddenly disconnect, you're battery SHOULD be in there.

    Basically, it's really up to you. If you know you aren't going to use it for a while, don't leave it in to be on the safe side. Otherwise, it's ok. Nothing bad will happen (it won't suddenly ignite or something :D )
