The two batteries have been used serially - so that's only 4 years each, 
but even that may be beyond their expected life!

The laptop has already been pretty much retired, and is mainly only used 
as a standby machine. It had to be pressed into service recently when my 
wife's computer picked up a virus - and she was able to use the laptop 
whilst I sorted her main computer.
