Can I install this battery myself?

I have a Black McBook which I bought about 3 years ago. The battery is dead now. Does this Rechargeable Battery -13 inch MacBook (Black) can replace the old battery? Can I install it myself or do I need to take it to an Apple store? Will it last as long as the original?

Thank you,

How long does the black Macbook battery last?

First, is there a difference from the Li-Ion and Li-Polymer battery. And how long will each of them last?

Got a new battery for my 13-inch black macbook. I'm using it on a computer running on SNOW LEOPARD. Is there a way to adjust life past 2 hours?

On TIGER, you were able to adjust battery for BETTER PERFORMANCE, LONGER BATTERY LIFE, etc. but I can't find options like that on SNOW LEOPARD. I was under the impression that, while running solely on battery (no power cord) that the life expectancy was around 6 hours before having to be recharged but it's only running to about 3 hours. Is this a faulty battery or is there something you have to do, besides just replace the old battery, with the new battery? (do you have to calibrate or something? whatever that is ...)

Can a black battery be used in a white macbook and vise versa? It says in the description to use this only in a white macbook.

Can I use a unibody aluminum 13'' battery in my 13'' white macbook, or do I need to get a white 13'' macbook battery?

I am skeptical and do not want to remove it from the package for fear of the store not accepting its return.
