Same, I was in university and kept showing up to class with my Dell Inspiron having killed it's own battery in my bag regardless how carefully I put it into sleep/hibernate.
Or I'd find it nearly dead and burning hot, fans spun up wildly, in the process of cooking it's own motherboard.
It heat suicided itself through 2 motherboards during the 1 year warranty.
I have my complaints about MacBooks, but at least I had a laptop I could count on being reliable and ready to work when I showed up to class every day.
I couldn't trust the Dell, making it absolutely worthless.
