Canadian lawsuit pegs Dell for knowingly selling defective laptops {Engadget}
Jan 14th 2007 10:06PM I have a 5100 and I've had all sorts of problems with it. Two months after I got it, it started getting so hot that it was uncomfortable to rest my hand on top of the keyboard for too long. I endured it for a few months until the heat problem got so bad that it melted the glue that holds the rubber on to the laptop and they fell off. Then the random reboots started so I sent it in fro repair under warranty. The "replaced the motherboard" and sent it back. Just after the warranty ran out, the heat issue started again. Then the plastic case just below the problem are audibly cracked while I was using it. Then the heat coming out of the PCMCIA slot, which is where the hard drive is stored, was so intense that it bubbled and peeled the paint off of the plastic. then the rear vent cracked. Then the plastic in the lid that holds the anchors for the hinge screws on the heat issue side failed and the metal hinge had also cracked in two. I would often leave my laptop closed and running to watch movies on my TV...coincidence? I never mistreated my laptop and never so much as jarred it. It barely left my house in the years that I've had it.

Malaysian laptop thieves using mystery gadget to pick which cars to break into {Engadget}
Aug 22nd 2006 9:34PM I seem to remember reading an article a year or so ago where this was happening in either North America or Europe. The thieves were using Bluetooth enabled cell phones to connect to Bluetooth enabled laptops that were set to auto discover and connect to Bluetooth devices. From there, since Bluetooth has such a short range compared to WiFi, it was a matter of smash and grab.

Jun 12th 2006 5:36AM 13 hours are retarded. Especially when all of the local big box stores in my town were selling this last week. No lie. My friend bought one on Thurs. And yes, the stores here are open Sat & Sun.
