If You Are Using Dell LapTop, Please Have A Look

A friend sent this to me. What happened was, he was away from his desk to get something and colleagues heard a "boom" then saw smoke came out from the side of his laptop. Almost immediately, they turn the power off and unplugged the socket. Still, the laptop caught fire. One of the colleague grabbed the fire extinguisher and aimed it right at the laptop and another two minor explosions were heard. They suspected that it was the battery.

This is not to bad mouth anyone, just that if you happen to be using one of Dell laptops, you might want to consider take out you battery while you are using the DC. Meaning plug-in.
