Got to love it. Tons of folks having problems with battery life on the new Mac Books they’ve waited years to get their hands on.

Those of us who have older Macbooks where the indicator has worked fine for years are SOL. Honestly folks, I’d be selling those AAPL shares to be on the safe side. The company is in a downward spiral w/o Jobs.
