Hi Andrew

We can help you out with a battery if you want another one. We have a
few dead laptops with good (but used) batteries.
Otherwise, two places to order new batteries -
http://ilovemyxo.wordpress.com/ and store.laptop.org.au (I have a log
in to AU site if you want to order from them).

Kind regards
