Good reading Dilbert. So much for quick googles.
The only vulnerabilities I found had to do with key security. Brute force could take a very, very long time.
On Dilbert's point about erasure, I'd contact the person who bought the laptop. If you didn't wipe the drive and they upgraded there's a chance your certs are still on that drive. Recovering them would be a trick but it would be the simplest option. One of those things I'd want to rule out before giving up.
