What the hell is up with my laptop?
One of my machines at work is a WinXP laptop - other that occasionally locking up hard enough to require removing the battery and plug to force a reboot, it is generally ok.
Except it seems to be possessed. The CD tray will randomly eject. I was just sitting here working on my Linux box, hadn't touched the laptop in a while, and *ka-chik* - the tray pops out. Other times it'll pop out, I'll close it, it'll pop out immediately, i'll close it, it'll pop out... repeat some random number of times.
Weird.
