Dead battery
Stupid Dell laptop... the battery suddenly died on Sunday night. I've had the computer for just over two years now. I looked online and read that Dell batteries go dead all the time, sometimes after less than a year from purchase. A brand new battery from Dell is at least $140 before tax and shipping and the reviews on them are terrible. I decided to buy one from another company for $90 total... that includes tax and insured next day shipping. I figure, what the hell, if it's going to die every two years, I might as well go with a cheaper one!

Our sisters had the same Dell laptop and they both fried after just over a year. Dell just doesn't make good products anymore. :( It's so annoying. I'd go with the cheaper battery for sure.
Gah! That's not fun. I've had my Dell laptop for six years now and haven't had any issues with the battery. *knocks on wood* Of course, I've now just cursed it...
