MacBook Pro Batteries Swelling and Failing

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Thursday June 22, 2006 @08:07AM from the boom-there-it-was dept.

JohnnyCakes writes "MacBook Pro batteries are apparently swelling, then failing. MacFixIt has some grotesque pictures of their own swollen MBP battery, which looks like it has suffered an internal explosion. Apple is replacing batteries on a case-by-case basis, but hasn't yet admitted any wide-scale issues."

Takes a long time to load. My mirror is better: http://195.62.29.95/www.macfixit.com/index.html sponsored by: www.photojerk.com - Server is downloading the images so I will replace the non imaged version here with a version that has images when its done.
