As always, whenever a new gadget is released, the guys at iFixIt are keen to immediately ripping it apart. This time around, they’re blogging their teardown of the new 13-inch Macbook Pro. Those who are squeamish should exercise caution when clicking the link below.
Goddamn would you look at the size of this thing. Two gigantic fans that look like they belong on the latest GeForce card and a battery that can be used to fend off potential attackers. iFixIt, a company that regularly goes inside brand new Macs to get a closer look at them, cracked open a brand-spankin’ new 17-inch unibody Macbook Pro. You know, the one you can’t remove the battery from.
Well apparently, you can remove the battery. It’s just going to require a lot of effort and void your warranty – as if you didn’t see that one coming. iFixIt says it’ll sell replacement batteries for the Macbook Pro, which is good to know considering Apple wants to charge you $180 to install and replace your old one.
