i followed apple's instructions and let my mbp go to sleep after the battery dies. However, its been sleeping for 4 hours so far and the sleep indicator is still 'breathing'...Will it shut down?
Got a tip for us?

It should. Sometimes it takes a while longer. Try waking it up to see if there's enough juice to make it come alive.
I'm pretty sure it takes about 5 hours for it to completely drain. Look at the bright side, the longer it last the better your battery is!

thats true! but its been almost five hours and it has, in fact, died.
time to charge her up!
also, can I use my computer when I charge it back up to full after being asleep/dead for 5 hours?
