    To see if your battery is affected, take it out and look at one end. It should have a sticker that reads, 'Sponsored by Al Qaeda'.

    Yeah but its not just Sony laptops that use their batteries, as the article says Toshiba, Dell & HP's to name but a few.

    I'll have to check my Tosh just to make sure.

    these batteries were produced in 2004. Apparently Sony changed how they manufactured them.
