Default Dell battery recall

For those of you who have not been watching the news, Dell is recalling a very
large number of laptop batteries, that can, in some circumstances, overheat,
explode, or otherwise start a fire.

Dell have created a website for this particular problem he

"ive had lots of dells, the warrantys are superb, fast next day support
for

machines with the latest technology in them. Also had the dimension
