One of the Elementary buildings in our district has MAC LC II's in each
classroom, library and lab (65 computers - all purchased at the same time).
This past year the batteries started going. I've probably replaced 20.
It's VERY simple - you don't need to pay a tech for this. There are 2
simple rules, 1. ground yourself and 2. be sure the new battery is
positioned the same as the old one (positive and negative direction)
