Saan namang Apple Store ok bumili? may freebies din ba silang binibigay? sa website kasi ng apple the 13" low end cost 61,990, high end naman is 76,990. meron ba kong mabibilhan na mas lower dyan ang price o yan na talaga ang standard price kahit saang store ako pumunta?

check the other re-sellers like Digital Walker. pag cash they sometimes give huge discounts. you can get the 13" for 55K-57K.

[toocrazy]

Sis, I'm a little worried with my Mac laptop kasi parang and bills mag-run down ng battery? I just had it charged (100%) tapos a few minutes after pababa ng pababa and battery. Like after 5 minutes it's down to 90%. Is that normal? How long does your battery last?

Minsan gusto ko laging plugged sa adapter kaso baka madry naman yung battery.

[Heatherette]

^Never plug it sa adapter tapos gagamitin mo siya kahit fully charged na. Sumabog battery ko dahil dyan and sabi na rin nung tech from Power Mac, masama daw i-plug yung adapter lalo't fully charged na.

Try, calibrating your battery:

^^ how old is your laptop? my 3-year old white macbook doesn't hold up na din as well as it used to but that's to be expected given the age and usage. if i'm using that laptop i noticed that even if i start with a full charge, in about two hours kelangan ko na mag-plug. most of the time i'm plugged na rin kasi nga bilis na din ma-drain. but my MBP, tagal ng battery.

pwede mo pa-diagnose sa Apple centers yung battery health.

^^ My Mac is barely a month year old. I'm using Mac Air, recent released. I thinking maybe hindi naka set ng maayos ang power saving kaya mabilis ma discharge? Anyhow, I think I'll just bring it back to Power Mac kasi it only lasts for 3-4 hours me thinks.

How long should it last ba?

Thank you sis for the advice! Naku buti na lang I don't do it kasi natatakot din ako na ma-dry yung battery because of over charging. Minsan lang nag overcharge kasi nakakalimutan kong tangalin.

[Heatherette]

^No problem I was misinformed din kasi dati na pwede i-plug lang kahit fully charged na. Ayun, sumabog charger ko eh ang mahal pa naman nun.

as far as i know by default naka-optimize dapat to efficiency, not necessarily powersaving but efficient yung settings. but definitely have them check na din. length of batt time depends din kasi sa usage mo at the time - the more programs open the shorter the batt life. but if i'm not mistaken, new macs on the average should run around 5-6 hours, moderate use? good luck! hope it gets fixed.

Heatherette - as in yung charger ang sumabog or the battery? scary. expensive nga magpalit whether battery or charger.

[muahmuahmuah]

this is my current dilemma scheduled my first genius bar visit today my plug isn't working right so sana plug lang talaga may deadline pa naman ako. grrrr.

[Heatherette]

^^Ay charger pala pero nasira din battery ko haha Lumubo. Ang malas lang.

^May topak minsan plug ko din. Naka-green kahit 1% yung charging haha

[muahmuahmuah]

lol sakin kaloka nga una usb drive ko nasira then next batt baka paguwi ko may ipod na ako maya joke. pero next ko is to get apple care before my year is up. kung this soon may problema ka worry naman year after.

something similar happened to me before with my white macbook. nag-e-error yung charging. they had to replace the port sa mismong laptop - thank God for Apple Care.

[muahmuahmuah]

they replaced my plug wwweeeeee niremind rin ako about apple care will get it talaga na i was going to rely on friends and brother in law sana eh easy breezy lang with the applecare.  i think nakagat nung baby bird ko yung plug eh di naman nila ininspect yung little marks pero buo pa yung cord la naman butas i think.
