    Dumb question I know, but is it OK to plug in or unplug my Vaio F11 while it is on. I recall reading about some brand where it caused problems... don't think it was Vaio, but would rather know for sure.

    Many thanks!!!

    It is fine to do so, and I even hear that the batteries on VAIOs are hot-swappable (provided you are connected to an AC outlet).

    I never tried it on my VGN-Z but did so on my 5 year old Samsung R45; that crapped out when I tried...
