Dell recall

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So how many of the laptops you support have had their batteries recalled? We have 12 pool laptops and it looks like 6 of them will need to be replaced. Dell’s site reported that it would take about 2 weeks to get the replacements, but I imagine it might really take loner given the size of this recall.

Since taking half our pool laptops out of circulation for that long is pretty much out of the question, we might have to come up with some fun, friendly warning signs to pop on them for now. 🙂

    Hey by the way, if you missed the Digital Cinema Night at Gnomedex tonight you missed a very impressive piece of technology. The video quality on the big screen was really quite amazing. I think Microsoft really has some good stuff going on in this area. It also didn’t hurt that they sponsored the evening…

  1. Hi Mike,

    Out of 10 laptops that we have, 8 of them needed batteries. All 8 were purchased about 8 months ago.
