My laptop is in the throes of death. :(
It's been turning itself off randomly for weeks (I suspect overheating, and even the external fan isn't managing to keep it very cool) and now every so often the screen flickers majorly and I can't see what I'm doing. Tried connecting one of our spare monitors, but it didn't work, the computer and it just didn't recognise each other.
Add to that the fact that it's five years old, my hard drive is nearly full, the battery lasts five minutes and the whole thing is rather bruised and battered (and makes funny noises from time to time), I think it's time for a new one.
Good bye laptop, you have served me well. :,(
