Have actually had to buy a new replacement battery for their laptop?

I've done it once, when my battery in my MBP became worse and worse.
Of course, had the battery been internal and I had to take it to a
shop and they would do it for me would have been of no concern.

I think a more valid question is how many lugs around an extra battery
to swap with to extend the battery life - assuming your question ties
in with the Macbook Air.

Not a second one because you wanted more capacity, but a *replacement*
because the OEM one no longer held a charge.

And how old was the laptop when this happened?

Two years, maybe. It was odd. My wifes powerbook is a lot older than
that but hold its charge still.
