Power has yet to be invented. Once your laptop dies it becomes uselesss.

That's why I mentioned a charger in the following line.

Batteries deteriorate over time

Sure, that is a concern. For a few years later; the idea is to at least have at hand some knowledge to translate into Latin and put into useful applications.

Also, remember that electricity can be produced with a bar of copper, a bar of iron, and some acid. Such as vinegar or even citrus.

and without the latest security patches you’ll definitely get infected sooner rather than later.

Yeah, because Mark Anthony will totally send me files like cleopatrahotpix.jpg.exe [/sarcasm]
