i was using my macbook today and low battery came on and then all of a sudden it shut down. the little battery indicator on the side wouldn't even light up.. i didn't have my charger because i was at the library so when i went home i plugged it in it took forever to turn on and everything on it was reset (date, forgot passwords)
it's a 2.53ghz macbook pro (purchased in 2009).. i use it daily, i use it for school, work and pleasure. it needs a new battery, new charger, and os x updated (i still have leopard).. i would also like to upgrade the ram to 8gb and maybe add a bigger hard-drive.
seeing as i use it all the time i can't be without a computer for more than a few days so sending it away for an extended period is not an option.
should i just cut my losses and go new or is it worth the money to repair it/fix it up?
