[QUOTE="rzj90059, post: 992111, member: 103936"] Hey thanks for the reply. I bought this Macbook off of Craigslist and yes I checked the "About this Mac" before I bought it and the cycle count was 0. With Cocunut Battery, it says the Macbook is 3 weeks old. Everything in the MBP's box was still new; black cloth still in its plastic, stickers still on sheet, even the charger still had the plastic over. The battery is a user non-servicable one so thats something for you to think about. I calibrated it as soon as I reinstalled the OS. Still it caps out at 4 hours, more or less with those lightweight applications. I am skeptic about taking it to the Apple Store as I do not know about the previous owner (whether he actually owned it or not). Whats my next option? Buy a new battery and install it myself?
