2 2010 macbook pro's --- vast performance differences....

[Tapley, Mark B.]

My 2011 has a new battery as of this spring. *Everything* worked, including a several-hour battery life, but the swelling of the battery made it hard to click the trackpad. That is indeed worth a check. Tom’s suggestion is a good one.

I am curious how your batteries are doing in those two MacBook Pros. Are
they still original? If yes, is there any swelling noticeable and any
weirdness with the touch pad?

Thanks

With RAM maxed out what else should I be looking for?
