Broken Stuff

Years ago my brother-in-law gave me an old bathered Asus laptop for my daughters to play with.

It was 3 or 4 years old when he gave it to us and it had taken quite a beating. Still it managed to work for another 5 or 6 years.
This morning the power source decided it had had enough and stopped working. Instead, it made this noise.

I recorded a few takes. That is it. I won't be plugging it again!

The loud 'clak' that can be heard at the start of the recording is me plugging it into the wall socket.
