I suppose that vacuuming out eight years of dust that had accumulated in the CPU heat-sink also helped a bit.

I learnt that I didn't really mend it properly - but just long enough for a full back-up to an external hard drive. *phew*
I've now got a shiny new lap-top..... and WOW, it's so much better.

I learned my work hours are changing... again
I'm so glad they don't bother to ask me or even tell me they are changing but let my coworkers bring it up in casual conversation
Cow - "so how do you like your new hours"
Me - "what new hours?"

I learned, no matter what you repair, China will always keep you busy repairing it again.
