QUOTE(Jing-leBelle @ Nov 24 2011, 09:17 AM) Nowadays Mac can't remove battery also isn't it? AFAIK, it will bypass the batt when the charger at green light. QUOTE(shockk @ Nov 24 2011, 09:20 AM) Bro, MBP starting from 2009 model and above have built-in battery. Refer here: http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/features.html» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « A long-lasting battery. Charge less. Do more. The new MacBook Pro delivers amazing battery life. And that’s with more powerful processors and faster graphics. An energy-efficient processor architecture with an integrated video encoder, along with automatic graphics switching in the 15- and 17-inch models, all help improve battery life. So you can expect to surf the web wirelessly for up to 7 hours on a single charge.5 Or take your entire creative studio on the road for live performances or a location shoot. Advanced chemistry and Adaptive Charging give you up to 1000 full charge and discharge cycles — nearly three times the lifespan of typical notebook batteries.6 And because the MacBook Pro battery lasts up to five years, MacBook Pro uses just one battery in the same time a typical notebook uses three. That’s better for you and for the environment. up to 7 hrs wireless web
Apple is using a new, more rigorous battery test that measures the results you can expect in the real world — like surfing your favorite sites in a coffee shop or catching up on the latest web videos. Even using this new test, MacBook Pro delivers amazing battery life. For your real life.
 Ahhh. Thanks

Can claim warranty but 9 months? Shouldn't Apple products last longer? My mom's NEC laptop charger can still last YEARS. I've read that the charger has a very short life span

apple, NEC, whatever, all are stuff that comes out of a factory. sure got some units that doesnt perform as good as it should. chargers, laptops, cars, etc. that's why we have warranty
so just bcuz yours died within 9 months, doesnt mean all apple charger died in 9 months. u cant talk about quality without using any sort of statistics

Not running back to windows are you?

Finally I saw a YouTube video saying that there isn't any software that can do those clicking effect ATM. You only can do it of you doing a video recording from you mac.

Thinking to let go, only 7 months old... I'm not too sure but I don't think the current 13" specs are that much of an improvement to yours, so the difference of 1K in price for a 7 months old product is a bit of a loss don't cha think? If the MBP is in very good condition, you should try to get at least RM 2800-2900.. Just my opinion though..
