Gateway
Incorporated is recalling 14,000 batteries used in its notebook PCs after
four customers reported that their computers had overheated. Sony fanboys will
rejoice to know their company isn't to blame, this time. The new recall affects
battery cells made by Samsung Electronics Company Limited and assembled into
battery packs by Simplo Technology Company Limited, of Taiwan, according to
Gateway spokeswoman Lisa Emard. Gateway, the third-largest PC vendor in the
U.S., expects both vendors to help cover the cost of the action.
