Dell Laptop Explodes in Flames

[Office Lineman]

Notebook-doken!! :doh: I can't help but think that a tremendous exploding fireball just serves to add substantial support to my idea that these should be called "notebook" computers and never "laptop" computers. -- I've killed again, haven't I?

Should someone sue Dell, perhaps. ;P Chris Meech I am Canadian. [heard in a local bar] When no one was looking, every single American woman between the ages of 18 and 32 went out and got a tatoo just above their rumpus. [link[^]]

It's obviously the battery. It's the only thing that could explode in a laptop. _____________________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us. My Blog [ITA] - Developing ScrewTurn Wiki 0.2a...

I've dealt with a desktop network card that shot out 3 inch flames. Not quite like in the pictures, but it might suprise you what can go wrong.

Hopefully the battery overload circuit cannot be controlled by Melissa the UniBomber virus. After all, I had second thoughts about using a laptop after that guy claimed that his naughty bits had been overly warmed. Timothy Lee Russell www.anatone.net
