It shuts itself down quite nicely when using the battery, but it would be nice to have a very quiet system when just editing text on my desk top. I noticed that a "Technical Reference Manual" is available for $70.00 for this machine. Has anyone looked at it? Would it be helpful on questions such as that posed above? Thanks in advance.
