Guess I better get a win in before April Fool's Every little helps. Winning a lot because I have mended my laptop. Having worked loyally all thru the trip, as soon as I got home the fan stopped and the processor wisely throttled back to about 5% normal speed. Felt like someone dropped a 286 in there when I wasn't looking. Not good for the RAC. Much aided by Google, I was able to disassemble it and remove at least four years of dust from the fan/heatexchanger. The fan is now much slower and eerily quiet - quieter than when I bought it, even when running SETI. (It was 2nd hand so probably partly clogged when it got here.) Being now a little jumpy, I've arranged a piece of paper to reassure myself the fan is still running. ID: 1352534 ·

This procedure will start on Monday, April 1st at 08:00 (PDT) and should take 3 days to complete, during which our entire project will be unavailable.
