Hey,

I have an iBook 600 DVD which I used as my main computer until I got my Power Mac last year.

When I got the PM I lent the iBook to a friend who needed a computer. After getting it back the other day it would seem she didnt like it, and had only used it once, the rest of the time it sat in a drawer.

Now the battery will only hold about an hours charge. It used to be about 3 hours. Is there any way I can recondition the battery? I have tried charging, discharging, and recharging to no avail, though could it take a few cycles, or is my battery dead?
