No Recharge for Dell

Qantas is responding to the recall of Dell laptops for computer batteries that are potential fire hazards. Other airlines are likely to follow given the onboard risk. Qantas is assuring passengers that they can use their Dell on board, particularly if they have had the faulty batteries replaced. However, those who have not must either use on-board power sources, and not use the risky computer batteries.

PC World is reporting the details of the recall and the inflight restrictions on Qantas.
