Well, well company for Dell!

From the misery loves company file news out of the USA that Apple Computers is recalling 1.8 million computers for faulty batteries.

Once again the Sony battery seems to be the troublesome power source, as a number of bloggers pointed out earlier today, before the announcement from Apple.

Last week Dell went through a week of hell as the story broke about its computer battery problems, coinciding with a particularly bad quarterly report for the computer maker added on to the weeks news a story of an investigation by the US governement over "accounting issues" (hmm we've heard that term before someplace).

While we’re sure that they don’t wish their competitors ill will, they’re probably rather happy to have the company in the headlines!
