News flash! This Just In…

My MacBook battery

I’ll update my graduation stuff later.

Look at my MacBook’s battery.

Only 483mAh! I’ve been having battery problems since I got this MacBook, it went down to about 60% within the first year (about 50 charge cycles) but I figured I have ACPP, so I’ll change it when I’m free.

Then one day I went to claim my battery, I found out that the ACPP doesn’t cover battery problems! I was so furious then because when I bought my ACPP, the guy didn’t tell me anything at all! I guess they just wanted the money.

I’ve been using this MacBook since June 2006 and it’s nearly 3 years now.  I’m using it with my adapter as I can’t possibly use it with the battery alone.  483mAh is even lower than my phones!

I guess I have to buy a new battery for RM559.  I’ve used my ACPP only once, which explains the 24,462 months there.  I got my whole motherboard changed because the Ehternet port went wokny.

Does anyone know where can I buy a MacBook White (Core Duo era) battery second hand? Anyone with an extra/faulty MacBook and can spare me a battery? Or a reliable third party one (from the better brands, not Cap Ayam) ?
