Item 1 below covers a lot of the bases.

I recently thought my 3 year old Lenovo laptop's battery had died. It normally lives in its leather case and when in use runs with the charger plugged in. But last week I pulled it out for a quick check on something and didn't bother to plug it in. I was shocked that it wouldn't boot off the battery alone. Actually, not only didn't it boot but there were no lights or sounds or anything to say that the battery was anything other than totally dead.

The first thing I did was remove the battery and plug in the charger. Then it booted OK. Put the battery back in and left the charger plugged in and rebooted again. This time when it came up I could see the battery charge indicator showed less than 20% charged. It was a big surprise to me to see that at near 20% the battery was incapable of booting the machine.

I let it ride on the charger overnight and the next morning it was once again able to boot from battery alone.

Peso:

I have not posted any of my Leica photos from NYC and Maine here because
the little Asus netbook I brought with me quit working. The battery will
not charge. I have changed cables and connectors so it must be something
inside the computer. Any suggestions??  In the meantime, my iPhone photos
are on Facebook :-)

I signed up for LR mobile on my phone and was amazed when Adobe told me
that all of my phone photos are now on my main computer at home!  Amazing.
