17-inch Macbook Pro Battery Is Removable…Sort Of

I love it.  Apple announced the 17-inch Macbook Pro to a ton of fanfare and then disappointment thanks to the ‘nonremovable battery‘.  But, and you’re gonna like this, the battery is totally removable.  Just unscrew the 13 Philips screws and unplug.  Apparently there is some sort of ‘warranty’ sticker, but that can be circumvented by anyone possessing ‘Operation’ (yes, the old game) like skills.  What else is amazing is that the battery accounts for 20% of the 17-inch Macbook Pro’s weight.
