I have had this current laptop for just over 2 years now.
The battery was dying about 3 months back so I bought a ‘new’ one off e-bay. It turned out to be a dud.
Yesterday in the newspaper I saw that HP are doing a recall on the batteries in their ze4200 models. All I have to do is send them my machine serial number and the bar code on the battery. Even after 2 years they are willing to give me a brand new one.
Wooohoo!
Only problem… I threw that battery away 2 weeks ago.
Ouch!
What are the chances HP will send me a new battery?…
Yeh… thought so.
