It says Battery Sample only.  No mention of what kind of model it is.
For its size, it's a light battery.  I assume it's the LiFePo4.

Damn it.  You make it sound like I'm losing so much for not updating.
Eh, eh.  I've avoided so far trying to update the machine without
learning from other user experiences if it's safe.  I mean, I don't
want to render the system unusable just after the expense of sending
it to me.

I guess I'll have to.  No point in working with the system as it is
when so much seems to have changed.

Oh, I was under the impression that I needed.  Which probably isn't
true considering I have access to root by just typing "su".

And you too for taking the time to reply to them.
