[QUOTE="arian487, post: 1183839, member: 191984"] Thanks for the reply! I read everything you posted and they definitely answered questions. I downloaded coconut battery, turns out my battery is at 103% which means I got a pretty good one :D Also learned that the self discharge rate is super slow so the continual trickle charge worry I had shouldn't be a problem which means I'm going to keep it plugged in on or off at all times save for about once a week or so. Also the temperature so far has been great, its not even warm actually so I guess I won't need a cooling pad. Though I'm not sure if the temperature won't go up once I start doing more hardcore devel on it so we'll see. I absolutely love my new MBP, so **** awesome. I'm still in that phase though where you're afraid to use it like you would your old laptop. Happens to me with every new piece of tech I get, in the very first few weeks I use it with extra caution lol. [/QUOTE]
