I was reading an article in the newspaper today about this. It's supposedly not only the Sony Lithium Ion batteries in the laptops, but in a variety of devices like cellphones and mp3 players.
There was a picture of an exploded laptop in a car, and the entire interior of the car was just incinerated... it looked pretty cool. I wonder if this is only in the Dells, I doubt it. I haven't opened my Toshiba Satellite yet to see if it has the Sony battery, but it damn sure has Lithium Ion and I better get a nice replacement. Jam it back in, in the dark.
The only way out is through.

From what I've read, in normal lithium ion batteries there's a basic battery powered by electrons migrating from the anode to the cathode [+ and -] and during the manufacturing process some small fragments of metal were left in the battery which can cause sparks and cause the laptop to explode. We should all use fuel cells.  There's nowhere I can't reach.
The only way out is through.
