The company asked not to be identified, as IT manager Steven told how he was called to the scene by reports of smoke billowing out of an employee’s computer.

“When I got there, much of the smoke has dissipated and nothing much was happening. I picked up the notebook to investigate, and turned it over. Soon after I put it down again, it basically exploded. Flames we flying six foot in the air, and sparks,” he told the INQ.

This incident will serve as warning to all of us, Mike Harvey of the Tech Central said.

an Apple PowerBook going up in smoke should serve as a warning to us all to heed product recalls.

It seems that staff at the London office of a marketing company were alarmed when a 15 inch PowerBook, several years old, began to smoulder. A member of the IT staff turned up to take a look.
