more computer woes

So I unplugged my lovely new laptop, put it on my lap, opened the lid, and nothing.  Nothing but a big black screen.  Not a flicker of life. I poked and prodded, let it read my fingerprint, held down the power button for several seconds; nothing.  Since this laptop is only six days old I was, to put it mildly, upset.  I did not, however, fling it against a wall or drop it off the balcony.  I did call my technical consultant aka my son.  After some conversation he suggested that I plug the computer into a different power strip.  I did this and after a couple of hours my laptop has miraculously come back to life.  I do not understand but if my computer likes the power on one side of my living room better than the other I will learn to live with it.
