all the information you folks provided. I had my laptop & bag packed and ready to go but we're on the 3rd floor, 2 blks from the Ocean in Kapaa and nobody else was leaving so I stayed, too.

When I tried to fire up my LT it wouldn't go on..the electricity wouldn't connect so I was without it until Monday when it mysteriously turned on again! YAY! I was just getting ready to take it to the computer hospital and tried it One More Time.
