Earlier this month, an Apple iBook caught fire when it was left over a room carpet for some time. Today, a Dell Laptop suddenly exploded into flames at a conference in Japan.
Inquirer has posted pictures of the burning Dell Laptop. Notice the waiter trying to bring down the Laptop Fire with the water serving jug.
Imagine the scenario had the the laptop been on his lap.

Burn, Baby, Burn! - Dell Laptops Have Their Own Music Video Now!
In honor of the second Dell laptop that decided to terminate it's own existence in a blaze of glory, rather send one more smiley ridden instant message into MySpace cyberspace, I present to you this announcement.
Sing and dance along with the Numa Numa (English) dance video parody that pays tribute to the Dell laptop tradition of ignition. Stunning animation footage shows a Dell laptop owner that can't get his crispy computer fixed by a computer repairman who is blowing smoke up his ASCII table:

The video footage is remixed from the stunning creative commons Elephants Dream project. Visit their site and download the free high defintion version of the 10 minute short film. It's a huge file and you may need the VLC player but it's incredible. There's smaller versions of the film too for the faint of bandwidth:
