Thanks for the reply. It sometimes gives a warning when at 23%, and
that's when the battery icon in Mac OS X turns red. Sometimes, if the
machine has been sleeping for a while with a large amount of battery
charge, it will still display the low battery message upon waking from
sleep, even though in the menu bar, the percentage is usually more
than 50%. I don't think it's failing.... I just bought it, and it
seems to be fine. I can live with that problem though, I still get 4
hours of battery life and up. I just want to know if it's a sign of
trouble. Thank you again. If you have any more thoughts or
suggestions, I'd love to hear them!
