Daughter's laptop, well out of warranty, but up until last week the thing had functioned flawlessly. This weekend, the battery goes from holding a fine n dandy sorta charge to none whatsoever. From System Profiler:
66 cycles is not a hell of a lot. Doing some searchin' I've found that the firmware was never updated on this battery. Is it pointless to even try a firmware update at this point?
Should I avoid the firmware update just so I can appear more helpless/clueless when I go to the Genius Bar to beg for a replacement battery?
Any advice appreciated.
