Hi there,
Brand new to this site, and am a soon to be convert from PC to Mac. I'm looking into buying a Macbook Pro, as the 5 year old Compaq I use is too glitchy and not dependable for the music production I'm interested in getting into. In my research into the mbp, I noticed a quote regarding the battery on the Mac website:
"...Apple engineers custom-designed lithium-polymer cells to create the largest possible battery, then they went even further: They built the battery right into the computer, eliminating the space-consuming mechanisms and housings that standard removable batteries require."
My question is this: what happens when the battery finally dies? Can it really not be removed and replaced years down the road? Or is it just not a quick-release mechanism, requiring some tinkering to get it out?
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
