I got a new Macbook Pro monday. I use it mainly at my office. Now, it seems that the battery life shortened. In the battery status bar, on the top of my screen, the battery won't charge past 98%. I can't believe the battery life shortened in 3 days.

 

Advices?

 

I'm using Mac OS X 10,5 on a 2,4 GHZ 15" macbook pro.

This is not a battery issue, this thing comes up when you drain your battery to a certain extent and connect it to a constant power supply and keep it connected for a day or so. After that battery charge percentage drops from 2 to 6 percent, try unplugging it, drain the power for some time and plug it back in. You will again have 100% battery status.

Anyway, 10% plus or minus is not that significant, batteries usually begin to drop fast around 40%, if damaged or faulty or old.
