One of the computer was a White 13&#8243; MacBook 1.83 GHz. It was a painles procedure to install the ram on the MacBook. I had the MacBook connected to the MagSafe power adapter. I then noticed that Mac OS X said that there&#8217;s no battery installed. I checked the battery indicator and none of the lights were on. Such a surprised since it was working just fine the day before. I then swapped the MacBook baterry with a different one from another MacBook. It is apparent that something wrong with the battery circuitry. Paraphrasing Dr. McCoy: &#8220;It&#8217;s dead, Jim!&#8221;</p>
<p>Here I am at an Apple Store, waiting for my Genius Bar appointment. This should be a no brainer, unless they&#8217;re giving me some runarounds. I&#8217;ll find out in a few minutes.</p>
<p>UPDATE:<br />
Surprise, they didn&#8217;t have any replacement batteries.</p>
