This thread is from 2008 and has been necro'd twice. Once in 2010 and again in 2011. If we include the time span between the two posts above me, then this thread has been necro'd thrice.

This concludes the fact of the day.

Yeah I was reading the first post and was like, wait a minute thats not a Macbook Pro battery ... (at least a new one). Anyone everyone abandon thread this is old, dont bring back the dead, create life instead.
 
mine did the same

Our group has had 2 this week do this. Mine was my backup and so it was powered off and unplugged for over a week when this happened.
 
Very scary thought.... [shifts laptop 4" down the legs].

Although how common of an issue is this? I have personally never seen it in person, not even with the cheap 2 for 1 Windows Laptops you can buy.

Just 4 inches??

j/k, that's about how far I'd have to shift it down too.
