There was a whole discussion on this last week, or the week before, but I forget what the source was.

I just bought a used MacBook Pro 15 on ebay.  It's very cool but the battery
only takes a 30 minute charge so I need a replacement.  My son says to
purchase a "new genuine Apple battery".  What's the best place to get a good
deal on one of these?  How much should I expect to pay?

I was just checking my records, and this 233 MHz Mac G3
has been rebooted 7 times in the two years that it has
resided in my new computer room.  It normally runs 24/7,
is my sole e-mail device and wherefrom I master the web
site, do all Photoshop/Illustrator work, etc.

Four power failures where the UPS was inadequate to
the task, two deliberate power-downs during longer
vacations, and once due to a CD-R image getting logically
stuck and un-dismountable during a Toast burning session.
(A vulnerability it has long had, but which is rarely
a problem.)  Only once in two years due to software failure.
Take that, Microsoft!  (The PC I am forced to use at work,
though now largely an xterm and Outhouse machine only,
can often make it about 2 weeks between reboots.  Unless
it can't.)

Not bad for free!  I believe I've been running it since
2005, that's when the HD was formatted anyway.
