Using laptop without battery.

I very rarely use my laptop away from my desk so it's always plugged in, and I was wondering if it would be safe to use it without the battery in? I have two main concerns-

 

Whether the battery acts to modify the power somehow (possibly sounds silly, I know very little about this) and so whether the laptop would be compromised without it

 

I'm not concerned about data loss as such in terms of the computer shutting off in the event of a power cut, but if I left the computer turned off and not plugged in, might I lose data? (Again this may sound silly!)

 

The laptop is a HP Pavilion dv6000

 

Many thanks in advance for any help :)

Some brands have no issues with working without a battery in them while others will not work right or work at all without one.. No, you will not lose data with the computer turned off and unplugged
