This be old dood; I thought it sounded familiar to something like this that happened a couple years back - in fact, one of my friends fell victim to the battery recall and returned his very own laptop; but I was surprised to hear something like this happening more recently. I honestly hadn't heard a thing mentioned at all on tech sites.
The spec's releasing info on laptops sold from 2004-2006; and honestly, the average pc life is something like 2-4 years tops, so considering that people may still have these laptops, then yes it's probably best they send it in to get fixed; but in my own honest opinion, it'd be better just to buy a more recent brand of laptop.
Honestly, you had me on edge because I thought my laptop could have possibly been one of the laptops in this recall; which would suck royally because I just bought it in August for $1500 (dell XPS m1530)! Thanks for the update anyways, there might be someone out there who'll find this information useful.
