My laptop is old, and it shows.
I recently had to dispose of the battery. It reached the end of its natural life. Since I don't really take the laptop anywhere, and since it works fine without a battery and on AC power, I decided not to buy a replacement battery.
The "t" key is sttill somettimes double-striking and someimes nott registtering at all. I'm leaving tthtis paragraph uncorrectted so you can see for yourself whatt I have to endure. Yeah, itt sucks.
The display sometimes features flashing horizontal lines. It has something to do with color. Also, pressure on it in a certain way can make it do the flashing thing. There's obviously a bad connection somewhere where the screen portion of the laptop is hinged to the lower part.
The laptop is nearly nine years old, so it's no spring chicken, and it's served me pretty well. I'll keep using it until it becomes unusable, but I fear that day is approaching faster than I would like.
