>> Multiple laptop deaths at the worst possible time

I got an HP2133 a little while ago, which was lucky because about a week later my Mitac8060B (which I'd been using to prepare my talk for the MythTV miniconf) died. I ended up having to rewrite some code but got back on track. Then today my 2133 died!
Technically I don't think it's dead, it's just not charging and I didn't notice until the battery had gone flat. Now it's dead flat and won't start, and I don't know anyone else with a 2133 that I can borrow a charged battery from to extract stuff from it.
Damn. Just what I didn't need 2 days before heading to Hobart.
