	If you own a PowerBook 140 or 170 you may or may not be aware of
Apple's battery case program.  A few people have had the battery terminals
short while the battery was outside the computer.  Since there's hardly
anything a NiCd loves to to better than generate massive amounts of current
in a short period of time, fires and/or explosions can result.

	If you call 800-377-4127 Apple will send you a free plastic case
for your battery.  If you own only one battery and never take it out of
the computer this program is of little benefit to you. Then again, it *is*
free.
