I actually don't give a shit what they do, all i know is it'll be a better machine than the MBP i have now, lets hope the battery doesn't get so hot!

What does it matter if the battery is replaceable? I've used laptops for more than 10 years, and I have never ever replaced the battery. If the battery dies then chances are that the computer is so old it's useless anyway. If not, it should be covered by the warranty.

Hey, imagine if you were in the middle of nowhere, are going to present and your MBP just ran out of juice. Bummer if the battery is irreplaceable. We're talking about modularity function over form.

In this day & age, you've either got a car charger or if your that far out, you should have a solar charger (which i have) & if there's no sun, no other power then i guess your fucked lol.
I'm also the same as most people, same battery through out the life of the notebook.

I'd prefer a fraction of added weight and size to non-removable batteries. But if they have a 50% improvement or so compared to their ancestors, then it's a different story
