Actually dell is half decent, I work with their servers a lot at work, since all our servers are Dell, so are the workstations. Just dont expect to do a major upgrade... lot of propiatary stuff in those. But for a 1U or 2U server it's to be expected.
I just hope their servers dont have that explosion issue.
But if it's real (could be the article is not real) I say 95% of the chance is that it has to do with the battery. Kind of like the exploding cell phones they had.

Yeah--well I had a contract job doing recall motherboard replacements for Business
Dells that were failing--so we were running around replacing them before they failed.
And, if that pic is real, the airlines should Definately prohibit laptop use on planes.
