Mom's laptop died.

Probably hard drive failure. We connected it to a PC and it doesn't show up.

Edit: It's definitely hard drive failure. Well, now I have something I can disassemble!

I have found that sometimes a 'failed drive' can still be read by Linux.  I have this device, a universal drive adapter, which allows me to connect just about any kind of drive to my Linux box.  You should maybe look into it, try it, the adapter(s) are cheap ... saved my butt and others I've rescued dozens of times.  I usually hunt for such stuff at OWC (Other World Computing), but you can shop via Google just as easily.

Edit:
Actually, you might find these of easier access...

On another note, it got up to ~83*F(28*C) just a few days ago, and this morning I threw a snowball at my wife.  No, we didn't travel.

We got a new RoboVac cat terrorizer. :D The cats are not amused. The ducks are suspicious. The bunny is confused. The floor is clean.

We have dubbed her, Rosie Catsbane!

Oh, and the guinea pigs are convinced it's edible.
 

Give it time, assuming it's a Roomba-style robovac. Just google "cat on Roomba." I'd post one, but there's so many to choose from...

Only until they learn how to control it and make it their slave.

I now have this image of a cat sitting on one, riding it around, as if it's some kind of wheeled throne.

Kind of like the videos, but more pompous looking.
