the enter key, the keyboard on ur average malaysian computer. thats U.S layout. U.K layout is different as the enter key is following the arrow. means it looks like an L. but flip the L the other side.

Mine is used for 1.5 months. Currently if I surf on Firefox, it would last around 5 hours plus only :-(

the battery you guys need to see your usage frst, the 10-9 hours have to be gauged from these settings:
- screen brightness at 20%
- just surfing
- word documents only

Actually Apple based theirs on 50% brightness. Which is what I did also. And I meant just firefox and finder open. And also flash is disabled unless I wanna view Youtube.

from my experience the apple recommendation cant be trusted, plus if you notice the battery time fluctuates at time, just my observation it also depends on your room ventilation and air flow, never put your mac on a bed while doing testing, restricts air flow.

have you done calibration before? the thing with batteries is that they overtime get worn out. The good way of taking care of them is that, if you are at home its best to leave them on power cord, and when you are on battery its best to use it until below 10% to charge, charging at 70%, 50% or 30% is pointless. heres teh link http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1490

at times some sellers tend to place this codes inside refurb boxes, thats the issues, but that is highly unlikely, if you dont mind care to share the link with me? have a mbp 15 that needs acpp and i dont trust the ebay sellers, the prices are cheap but very dodgy
