    I recently picked up a macbook pro on ebay for $1000. the reason it was s cheap is that the battery on it is fried. I have found a place that has themm for as low as 100 bucks shipped so how could i go wrong.
    Now that i have my MBP i am trying t figure out which battery i need.
    I was wondering how i find which model of the notebook I have so i can figure out the correct bat.

    any info would be greatly apricated.

    thanks in advance

    how big is it the screen?

    Group buy? haha I am going to pick myself up a new battery because on Thursdays I have far more than 4 hours of lectures. Shoot me a PM or a text if you are looking for a A1175. I think I can get them $89.99+GST if we both pick them up.

    Although...I might ditch the idea of a new battery and get a new macbook pro, but the new one is a crappy keyboard :(

    hahaha it is a year old...but I use it a lot. I love the thing to death, but I have filled the hard drive already. I kind of just want to get a new one, but that is a HUGE waste of money. Apple always makes me blow money on stuff they will change up in a year.

    The battery I was looking at was by Apple. In general when the battery charges inside of the device I like to go OEM, but if it charges externally then I will explore my options.

    here is a link
