Heh, yeah, my battery is just as good as yours. If I were to pull the power cord out of it right now it would shut off instantly.
And, wow, not a bad deal. Given that it was dropped it's good that the screen still works.
Wireless NIC support in Linux is still kind of meh in my experience. I wish some things were explained better, like how you had to download the firmware for the ipw2200 driver (took me some time to work out...blah). There's also a lot of cards that don't have freely available firmware but for those you can generally use the Windows drivers via a wrapper. It's moving along, at any rate.
And heh, I was thinking about going for an A+ certification but I never got around to it. :x
