My late 2008 Macbook (the aluminum one, not a Pro model) needs a new battery. This MacBook model has a battery door and is user-serviceable unlike other MacBooks that came after it. Can I call the Apple Online Store and/or Apple Support and simply purchase one over the phone? No point bringing it in because it is NOT builtin. Does anyone have experience calling Apple for this part? Thanks.
Got a tip for us?
