Yahoo! Santa Clara HQ smoke alarms were triggered this week by yet another exploding laptop battery, “forcing several hundred employees to evacuate the building”.Flickr exec Stewart Butterfield snapped the laptop and placed the image on the pic stream site.“We just all had to leave the building for 45 minutes because this thing set off all the fire alarms. It was on the 8th floor and we could smell it on the 3rd,” he wrote on Flickr. Question for Dell (which Tech Watch will be asking): Is this latest firey battery from the mega-recall replacement batch? Butterfield says in his photo post that the battery is a Sony, so apparently it was an individual’s computer which had not had its battery replaced. We’ll still ask Dell 🙂So the question we posed, Free battery refresh, or pain in the butt?, appears to be answering itself with an explosive pain in the behind. But do feel free to comment further.
