[QUOTE="jumpskegger, post: 835661, member: 97745"] 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: [B]They built the battery right into the computer, eliminating the space-consuming mechanisms and housings that standard removable batteries require[/B]." 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! [/QUOTE]
