Hi

My wife managed to drop my macbook pro, and now it runs as slow as turkey- but only when it's unplugged.

If I attach the power cord, hey presto, it starts working at normal speed again.

I've had a look at Activity monitor, and when I detach the power cable, CPU activity rockets up to around 85%.

Anyone know what's been damaged in the drop that would do this, and how much it might cost to put it right? Ballparks appreciated, i know it's just a guess without looking at the machine yourself

Thanks

Rob
