[QUOTE="kalen, post: 902212, member: 117299"] Really?? Where did you take it to? I see you're from London. I live in Oxford and when I asked about my battery having only 145 load cycles and being pretty much dead, the guy at the local Apple Service store just dismissed me saying it's normal for old batteries to deteriorate really quickly even if you don't use them much. (This is the same guy who told me Macbooks can't turn on without the battery, btw :Not-Amused: ). I might take it down to London for them to have a look. Qua Sar, as far as I'm aware, it's not normal for a battery to lose its capacity so quickly. I remember reading that Apple guarantees for its batteries up to 300 load cycles. [/QUOTE]
