I duplicated the issue. I left the laptop plugged while shut down. When
I next turned on the computer, I saw the cord icon instead of the
battery icon and I had a sinking feeling. Sure enough, starting Firefox
caused the laptop to shut down, complaining that CPU scaling was not
enabled and that a critical temperature of 51C had been reached (!). It
lasted maybe three minutes. Took out the power cable, started up again,
and this time she's still going.

Seems like two conditions are needed to make Ubuntu flaky for me:

1. The battery must be present and *fully* charged from being charged
while the computer is off.

2. The AC cord must be attached.

Weird.
