I found this link in an IRC channel . Has this happened to anyone else? http://www.danamania.com/temp/powerbookfire.jpg. The battery caught fire when being used and the user had to quickly drop it it was spewing flames and red hot metal out the side.

Not good PR apple

Man, you're going to have to do a lot of convincing to have Apple repair that.

Hope you had a recent backup.
