I know I'm not Posted by Ari [Email] (#2847) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Ari) on Fri, 25 Aug 2006 05:53:32 In Reply to: Mac Laptop Battery Recall, Gordon [Profile/Gallery] , Thu, 24 Aug 2006 14:37:14 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My PB is in the date range, so I popped the battery out and check it - it wasn't the right model number, so I'm fine.
I actually wouldn't have minded if my battery was affected - my 15" PB is about 2 years old, and the battery is not holding charge as well as new. I'd love for someone else to pay for a new one. But I guess I'll just have to spring for it myself.
The same can't be said for my work-issued Dell laptop. Its battery is sitting on my desk, surrounded by yellow "CAUTION" tape. OK, I have a wierd sense of humor. But the all-Dell Fortune 500 company I work for has been unable to arrange for replacements (easily in the thousands), so mine and many other computers are dead between power supplies. And given how long it take to start up and shut down a Windoz box, it's a bit frustrating.
