Notebooks not Laptops

We don't call them "laptops" since they overheat and explode. Check these out, and don't tell me that some of these sources are dubious! The photos are great. :-) "Exploding" Dell Laptop Destroys Truck, Imperils Outsdoorsmen; Dell laptop explodes at Japanese conference; Another PowerBook violently explodes.

As far as we know, a commercial jetliner has never been brought down by a notebok PC, but one can never be too careful.

Comment on this.
