Sony having to recall 18 thousand VAIO laptops because apparently there is some risk of users receiving a small electric shock "if you have connected your PC (laptop) to external power, you have disabled your phone line, (while) simultaneously being connected to a grounded peripheral, and you are touching a metal part of the PC, and your phone rings"!"
You know they would say anything unles it happened to someone.![]()

Wow... yesterday, they recalled 18,000 DVD-RW disks. Now they are recalling 18,000 VIAO machines. Is there something magic with 18,000 for Sony?

18,000 is the point where the cost of a recall runs over the cost of if an accident happened.....maybe
