    Why do I purchase a replacement battery for my mid 2010 MacBook Pro?

    I am 100% comfortable doing the work of replacing the battery once I have a replacement battery.

Where would an authorized repair shop...

    Hello there Mac`s owners. I noticed that most dirty keys on my MacBook Pro`s keyboard is T and Y (look on the photo). I think the reason of this problem is active cooler system on Macs. Thus on MacBook without coolers there is no dirty keyboards. What do you think about it? Cheers and спасибо!

    MacBook, Dongle-dom & "Single port life"

    How is life with only 1 port? What are the restrictions with non-Thunderbolt 3 compatibility? I am presuming today there aren't many devices though this may change. Is the 5Gbps upper limit an issue, or is this just for "pro" use, i.e. multi-5k screens, plus TB3-native SSDs or eGPUs? Is there...
