Yeah, and stated battery

Yeah, I agree that stated battery life is always much worse than actual battery life. Personally, I keep all of our laptops plugged in pretty much all the time as they're used like mobile desktops. Some of them have battery recycling software where it's supposed to help restore performance, but most don't.

Obviously Apple won't change the non-user serviceable battery thing because it forces people to upgrade in a reasonable timeframe (for Apple).
