I am sorry, but you just have to love the dedication of saving a notebook from a blazing battery fire. Seriously
An HP notebook was left damaged but not destroyed last week when it became the latest laptop to suffer a battery meltdown - the hasty removal of the power cell prevented a notebook fire like the one that took out a Lenovo ThinkPad two weeks ago. This time the incendiary incident was captured on video.
According to witnesses, the notebook began to emit smoke, at which point the clearly asbestos-fingered owner pulled out the smoking power cell and punted it outside into his firm’s parking lot. Just in time: the battery caught fire almost immediately…. Source: Reg Hardware
