The question is does Dell Computer manufacture their own batteries. A research will reveal that there are a limited number of batteries manufacturers and they manufacture for many other companies with their labels added.
Out of HS I worked for a cake company that made cakes for twelve different bakeries and the only difference was the packaging and labels. Wife worked for a clothing manufacturer that made pants for several companies and the only difference was the stitching and the pocket labeling.
One manufacturer makes refrigerators for several different companies, only difference is the labeling.
One manufacturer makes lawn mowers for several different companies, only difference is the labeling.

My brother-in-law put a water filter on his kitchen faucet and he, his wife and son talked all evening how it had improved the taste of the water. That night he got up to go the restroom and though to get another drink of water and noticed that the filter was dripping where it screwed onto the faucet. He decided to fix it while up. He had a difficult time stopping the leak and took it off. While it was off he took it apart and noticed that it did not have a filter in it.

People are often fool by what "They Want To Believe."
