[comp.sys.laptops] zenith supersport battery

ilene@csd4.csd.uwm.edu (Ilene F Levin) (08/19/90)

A friend recently mentioned seeing an article in PC Week that Zenith was
extending the warranties on the battery packs due to the number of difficulties
users were encountering. There were postings within the past several weeks
about problems experienced with the battery.

As anyone heard anything further about this? My Heath/Zenith is still fairly
new so I haven't experienced any problems yet but I would like to know about
any warranty changes in case of future problems. My information is currently
hearsay so I am hoping that someone can verify or refute it.

It seems to me that I read in PC Week that Zenith Data Systems was doubling
the warranty on the SupersPort 286 to 2 years.  I don't remember reading
anything about batteries, but I did miss 2 issues of the magazine...

I hope this helps...
