Another PowerBook violently explodes

[wraggster]

Just when we think these explosive batteries can't get any worse, then you see a PowerBook that looks like it was hit with a high powered explosive charge -- which, in a manner of speaking, it was. This unit was apparently a year old and wasn't even powered at the time it, um, went off -- 6:00AM. Talk about your rude awakenings. So please, people, learn from this rash of Li-ion explosions: you lessen your chances of battery combustion by returning them wherever possible, so return your frickin defective batteries, ok?

Whoa... ok, Apple isn't doing so well, since nobody I've talked to since the recall started even knew there was a problem with the batteries. (6 people I know have these laptops, and I know for sure that 2 of them are included in the recall. I don't remember for sure...)

In someone's lap, that would cause serious damage. At someone's side, that could be fatal if not treated quickly. For the love of God, people, Get The New Battery!

Damn.. that sucks..

Most people get their batteries from the recall because they say 'There is nothing wrong with them'

So instead of throwing the other out, they keep it and use it for themselves.

They won't be including this in those commercials!
