That was one frustrating thing regarding it being a laptop.  This laptop is
new enough that it didn't have a floppy drive.  I did try booting from the
Live CD & manually restoring some files, but I either didn't do it right,
or it didn't matter.

I thought about that, sort of.  I did think enough to check the boot menu
(by hitting ESC within so many seconds before it defaults) and it actually
had both the old & new listed.  I tried both, figuring that if it knew
enough to list both, it had loaded both.  But maybe it did not.

After that, I tried the manual restore.

Funny thing, even with the reinstall, it did not install the same way the
second time, and certain things that had worked fine the first time were a
pain the second time.  Of course, being pretty irate probably didn't help
me remember things too good.  ;-)
