Re:How To Check / What To Do (Score 1)

I posted something about this a while back, and at the time people thought it had to be something other than the battery that caused the explosion in Japan...

here

Only difference is that Dell must have updated their database because months ago I entered the battery code in and said it didn't need replacement... Now I enter the same code and it does need replacement.

Dood, I think it's pretty sad if I can post on slashdot after this story has been out for a day or two, and still not receive notice from the local tech person about this incident...

Still, this goes to show how publicity will get things fixed! Eventually... Now if only the press could publicize the need for less work hours and more holidays and get that as priority uno action item...
