Hello theerreee,
So, basically i just got a couple of questions - well, mainly one main question - about the battery in my MBPro :batman:
Now, i've searched and didnt really find a propper answer, so i thought that seeing(sp?) as everybody here is very nice i might be able to ask
Since i got my Mac i have charged it once when i first used it out of its excitingly black box - with the system charging whilst i was setting it up. The second time i charged it, the battery level went down to 3% so i turned it off and plugged it in to charge until the light on the MagSafe wire turned green.
Therefore, i am wondering if i am doing the right thing by letting the battery run down to 0% and the system then going into 'sleep mode' for a few hours, and then charging it from there?
also, with the little white light flashing on the front of the MBP, indicating 'sleep', should i press the power switch to turn it off, or wait for the white light to stop pulsing on its own?
I'm sorry for the rant and ramble above, and i want to apologise in advance if it makes little - or no - sense to you people at all...
Thanks for reading,
