acroread/battery



Hi guys.
Not laptop specific question to start with:
I've been googling in search of acroread 5 for debian testing. I've come 
across a debian package for woody, but wouldn't install, asking for some 
acroread-debian-files, which I haven't managed to find. Is there anybody 
who was able to install it at all?

Second question, laptop specific.
This morning I went battery shopping for my laptop (compaq presario 700). 
It cost me 145 euro+vat, and I had to buy, because the other one was 
completely done. Now then, the guy in the shop told me to extract it every 
time I'm using my laptop on AC. However, that seems a bit annoying and 
dangerous: I wouldn't want to break the slot or anything. So the question 
is: in your experience, how do you actually keep your battery in good 
health? Charging and discharging it completely all the time, extracting 
it, or whatever? You know, a laptop may last not long, but change battery 
every less than two years, is quite expensive in the end.

All right then, thanks a lot for your help.
	Cheers
		Ale
