I like how they decline to say what model it was. I wonder what the cause of it was?

According to the article, the explosions were occuring for 5 minutes! I was just using my laptop on my lap yesterday.

This really isn't anything new, laptops have been blowing up and catching fire in peoples' laps for years.

he didnt say best.

good, i can agree on...i know alot of Dell users and they are satisfied. if ur a pro user however, u would build ur own or get a better quality laptop.

u DO know that dell's laptops and printers are actually rebranded versions of other models out there right?

Of course, but their Inspiron laptops are piles of shit. I've never used a more fragile laptop. The Latitudes are quality though.

Try using a 17" Macbook Pro. Now thats overheating!!!
