And What Does It Mean When

My personal laptop, which has been plugged in while at the hotel to keep battery charge up, just shut itself off. Twice. Hopefully this is more a sign that the battery (six years old) is actually loosing it's ability to hold a charge rather than something more ... dire. Since I didn't bring the power source with me to training classes, it shall need to wait until after today's sessions to trouble-shoot.

Meanwhile, at least I did get to deal with a couple e-mails that needed quick attention. And lunch is good. This is all to the plus.

We now return you to your Regularly Scheduled Life.

Oh, yeah. Probably your battery. They're only supposed to last a year or so, you know.

1. Reseat the battery. Probably couldn't hurt to clean the contacts while the battery is out.

2. Consider heat issues. Overheating will cause any PC to turn off.
