Apple recalls 28,000 PowerBook G4 batteries
- Apple has recalled 28,000 of the batteries used in its 15in aluminium PowerBook G4 laptop computers sold earlier this year in the US and via its online and retail stores, after receiving four reports of the batteries overheating. Apple has reported the fault to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The CPSC said yesterday that an internal short triggers the fault, causing the lithium ion rechargeable batteries to overheat.

Hmmm, it's been about 10 years since the last exploding powerbook. Spose people are wrong about Mac's being expensive, you get way more "bang" for your buck
*Plugs external keyboard on a long USB lead into the iBook*
I'm in charge and I say we blow it up

It's good enough for me, just doing Office, the net, etc. Sometimes I wish it was a powerbook, but only cause they're cooler
