The laptop had some problems. The keyboard had some kind of error, so I swapped it out. The battery that maintains the clock had long since died, so I replaced that. I removed the main battery and soldered wires to get out-of-the-frame access to the on/off switch. I also brought the backup battery outside the case because I wasn't sure if I'd get a good match.
I was lucky to find PDF's online which detailed how to disassemble and repair IBM Thinkpads.
It's a model 755C running Windows 95.

This hour-striking clock with four dials was installed in 1904 in the New Market in Kirkgate Leeds by Wm Potts and Sons Leeds. The clock was designed by John and Joseph Leeming of London and cost £150. Gerald Balfour MP opened the market and the clock was set going by Alderman Knowles on 1 July 1904.
In Kirkgate Market it had an electric alarm which rang at 5.55, to warn the stall holders that closing time was imminent, and again at 6pm for close of business. The clock was serviced by an engineer who went up inside the tower, pushing up the trapdoor, which he then stood on to work on the clock. Sadly on one occasion, the engineer suffered a fatal electric shock and collapsed on the trap door which made recovery of his body very difficult.
In 1912 it was necessary to resite the market stalls to provide an entrance from Vicar Lane. The clock was removed and placed close to the entrance to Roundhay Park near the entry lodge. This building was demolished in 1937, leaving the clock alone.
In 1941 the movement was replaced by a synchronous drive and the original movement later installed in Leck Parish Church, near Kirkby Lonsdale in Lancashire. The Oakwood clock was restored in 1977.
The most impressive picture of the clock in its original site in Leeds Market is probably this engraving from "The Building News" in 1901:

Leodis carries a number of shots of the clock in the market and at Oakwood, including these:

I think this is the clock tower that never kept the proper time.. it dates from 1620 and is impressive up close regardless
Clocks by Coldplay. A Kaleidoscope of Neon.
I was asked by the President of Malta, George Abela to work on this project to raise money for the Malta Community Chest Fund. Musical Director, Sigmund Mifsud had already chosen and orchestrated a series of rock classics pieces to be played by the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra. The Rockestra show took place on the 12th September at the MFCC. Ticket sales were expected to be around 3,000 but I am very pleased to say that they sold out at 12,000. This is the largest indoor event ever held in Malta.
The evening included pieces by Coldplay, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, The Eagles and John Miles, so had a strong 70’s leaning and I wanted to reflect that in the imagery.
The local artists were The Riffs, Jotham Saliba, Claire Caruana, Alex Bezzina, Raquela, Neville Refalo, Daniel Cauchi, Ruben Zahra, Paul Borg Bonaci and DJ Owen.

From Wiki:
The Wells Cathedral clock is an astronomical clock in the north transept of Wells Cathedral, England. The clock is one of the group of famous 14th– to 16th–century astronomical clocks to be found in the West of England. The surviving mechanism, dated to between 1386 and 1392, was replaced in the 19th century, and was eventually moved to the Science Museum in London, where it continues to operate.[1] The dial represents the geocentric view of the universe, with the Sun and Moon revolving round a central fixed Earth. It may be unique in showing a philosophical model of the pre-Copernican universe.
Another more basic dial is mounted on the outside wall, driven from the same mechanism. This was first installed in the 14th or 15th centuries, but has been restored a number of times.
The upper circular component (an astrolbe or simple planetarium) was installed in 1410 and has run more-or-less continuously since then. There are several moving parts, including the outer zodiacal ring and symbols representing the sun and moon whose positions vary with the celestial locations of these bodies. Rumor has it that the craftsman who made this mechanism was blinded so that he could not replicate this invention in any other city. At the top, under the arched portico, a golden rooster crows three times at the conclusion of each hourly episode. On the hour, the two blue doors open to reveal the passage of two sets of 6 carved apostles, added in the 17th century. Four animated statues flank the astronomical clock; the two on the left represent Vanity and Greed, while the two on the right embody Death and Lust. (Prague: Old Town Hall: 19-21 May, 2017)
