Just got me a new macbook pro 13"... loving it and its much better than my hackntosh :) Ok so its got some new battery technology.. I've read all sorts of different theories on looking after it..

What is good battery maintance?

- only charge when your battery is almost dead?

- Keep it cool... if possible.

- Dont over charge and keep off the charger unless charging.

- Dont run your battery dead flat.

So what do the mac experts think? Am I close to the mark?

Cheers guys.
