I turn my old Macbooks into pseudo desktops as the batteries start to go. My 2012 MBP is my girlfriend’s “desktop” now.

If only Apple hadn't glued the batteries to the top case in this model. Maybe it's possible to just pry them off, but for the trouble I'd rather just pay Apple for the new top case with new batteries attached.
