But according to what I've read, a lot depends on the battery configuration (which is probably a Dell decision) and the position in the laptop (also a Dell decision, and given how poorly they cool their laptops, I can understand why the batteries blow up.)

It will be interesting to see if there are further recalls. Does this hurt Dell or damage Sony?
