For your reference, I ran this command with my old battery and my 
relatively new battery for my 15" Al-book:

old	2029

new	4032

If the numbers can be compared across 'Books, then it suggests that 
your battery is not at peak performance, but not far off (10%).  My 
'old' battery, even with this 2029 performance, is still useable. 
Tired, but not kaput.
