Hey guys I'm seeking a good battery and cord for my Mac book mid 2010... Tired of going back to their store for this shit.
One tech said "sorry to be the barer or bad news but..." They no longer replace cords within 1 yr for free.
- It was within 1 year.ohhhhhsnap
- Know of any that have been produced by other companies?ohhhhhsnap

Ya not sure why quite a few of my friends kept breaking their cords, while I've never had that problem....

I've never had one break, either.

Mine break all the time. And most of that time they stay plugged in on the counter waiting for a device. Once in a while one gets wrapped up to travel. Far from from being abused.

^ that is only one cord Apple made, and it was just a USB extension for the plugged-in keyboard. Every other USB cord/port they have made is standard, before and after.
- I've got some more of them here, modern and different looking. They didn't bother to support the USB specification latermekk
- yeah, they did actuallymonospaced
- any USB item you have, from any manufacturer, will plug into any mac with a USB portmonospaced
