[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1640214, member: 56379"] To mirror what chscag mentioned. Yes…the battery in your computer is DEFINITELY replaceable. Apple simply says that "technically" it is not user-replaceable…because Apple is not endorsing folks open up their computers to do the work. You can go to eBay or a place like Powerbookmedic.com…and purchase a replacement battery (and install it yourself). You can also go to ifixit.com…to see the battery replacement procedure: [url]https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+15-Inch+Unibody+Mid+2010+Battery+Replacement/3024[/url] It's actually very easy.:) Besides small screwdrivers…you need a not so common tri-wing screwdriver. - Nick [/QUOTE]
