Trouble for Apple?
Major computer manufacturer Apple has announced that it will be recalling more than 8 Million Laptop batteries which pose a potential safety hazard.
A small percentage of the lithium-ion batteries, which were manufactured and supplied by Sony, are reportedly faulty and can catch on fire or explode without warning.
This recall and another like it by Dell are forcing airlines world-wide to make a move to ban the offending hardware from being brought on board their airplanes in case a defective battery causes a fire in the cabin or baggage comparment.
