Several Dell-Notebooks burnt
Category: other notebook news
According to reports and forum comments laptops of the manufacturer Dell exploded or at least burnt.
A few weeks ago a laptop exploded four times in a japanes press conference. Now other reports with foto material appeared in the internet.
One time the "flametop" was alone in a room. It was switched off, but the AC adapter plug was attached. Of course the battery, too. In the USA a big building of an enterprise had to be evacuated, because a Dell notebook burnt. Probably a mayor Dell battery recall will take place.
