This New York Times article made me chuckle this morning. At a conference last month in Japan, a Dell laptop burst into flames and the explosion was witnessed by several participants and captured on video tape.
Wouldn’t it be funny if one of these laptops with the faulty lithium ion battery ends up in the hands of an MBA student and in the middle of class one day as the professor is walking through the students on hopping through fifteen different worksheets on an Excel file to correctly approximate the stock valuation for Dell and the laptop spontaneously explodes. As long as no one gets hurt, the incident would be quite hilarious.
Perhaps this is part of the reason Kenan-Flagler stopped offering Dell laptops this year.
