My father has a very old Macbook that I am looking to replace the battery on.

From these pictures, can is there anyway to easily tell which battery it uses? I do not recall seeing a part number on the original battery.

I am hearing that these things use batteries that are interchangable with newer macbooks - is this true?

Given this macbook's age, is it even worth replacing the battery on it? I was thinking of tossing this thing and buying him a $300 13" i3 dell for xmas.

Any good place online to buy an OE type replacement at a decent price?
