apparently it's not fixed...

It has been dieing another slow death the last couple weeks. I am trying to save what files I can before it's completely dead. I am gonna buy a new notebook asap (I've had enough of buying used and inheriting someone else's problems). I won't be around much during the day until I can get one in tho.. I want a dell and those take a couple weeks to get in.
Any other recommendations? (besides Mac

). If it's a sony or toshiba or something I can pick one up at BestBuy or Circuit City today
