..and this year its the iCookon a more serious note I am sitting here waiting for my girlfriend's notebook to have a similar recall. And no it's not a Dell nor an apple. How many other companies used the same battery packs? To be fair to the company I won't mention any names. After all, it may be suitable for cooking bacon for reasons totally unrelated to the current recall?

In the 1990s. when Apple had a similar notebook problem -- Powerbooks caught fire and damaged the company's reputation at the time -- the problematic Powerbook acquired a funny nickname inside the company: "The Hindenbook." Inside of Apple, I was told at the time (thought it may be only part of the Apple urban legend), the code name for the follow-on laptop model was "The Apology." - Tim Onosko On Aug 24, 2006, at 2:08 PM, David Farber wrote: > > > ------------------------------------- > You are subscribed as onosko () gmail com > To manage your subscription, go to > http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip > > Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting- > people/ ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as synthesis.law.and.technology () gmail com To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ipArchives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting- people/
