Ah, Spencer,

that's what I should do! Thanks! There are other Mac users at work, so  
I will ask around if I can borrow a battery to try.

The 'pfzzt' sound when it switches off is very quiet, and I think is  
just the hard drive being abruptly stopped and maybe other things  
losing power immediately.  Not coming from the battery.

My Titanium powerbook battery is still going fine!

There's another odd problem with my MBP.  The letter 'p' and the Caps  
Lock button almost never function.  very rarely, they do.  They are  
not dirty.  On Mac forums, I noticed that other people have the same  
problem with the same keys.  I tried resetting permissions, PRAM  
reset, to no avail.  I always have to type the letter 'p' by using an  
external keyboard only for that letter!

Best wishes,

Peter Cheyne
