You just dont seem to get it. The LD provides ventilation channels for the notebooks bottom to cool down. This means that the notebooks fan doesnt turn on so easily. So it reduces the heat of the computer itself just like any heat piping inside the comp. And it reduces the heat to your lap - yes- by providing an extra layer.

You have T40, I have I8500. You've got P-M, i've got P4-M. This means that my CPU creates hugely more heat than yours. Add this even more extra heat created by the GF 4200 Go GPU. Try to cool this down when the CPU is running at 65 C and GPU 70, DIMMs are going at 60 and HD at 53. You'd probably need couple of peltier-elemnts and liquid gases

You work with a notebook on your lap?
And the link works fine now, thanks. I wouldn't buy it though, since I have a pretty good two-year-old notebook with not-so-high temperatures.
At home, I also have an external keyboard plugged into it, and a mousepad with wrist rest.Comment

Zop, I wish I could
With the laptop desktop I might have a chance. The shipping just seems to cost more than the product itself

As somebody who currently uses a laptop as his only home computer, I've got to say that I'd buy that new ThinkPad in a heartbeat; those are exactly the features I'm missing."I have as much authority as the pope. I just don't have as many people who believe it." — George CarlinComment

Macs? Well they certainly are more slim, beautiful and cooler looking. Probably more stable and standardised than PCs too.
On the other hand PC notebooks vary much more. Theres something for everyone. Theres notebooks with eXtremely High Definition TFT screens such as Dells I8500 with 1920*1200 resolution. Then theres notebooks with eXtremely long life batteries such as IBMs T40. Theres notebooks for gamers, industrial use, military(toughbooks, milbooks etc) that can survive direct nuke, well not quite
Anyway you just got to choose your priorities. Do you want a mobile powerhouse? Ultraportable? Low end? How much does the price matter? Care about the looks? Weight problems? Wireless connectivity?
I wanted mobile powerhouse, price didnt matter so much. No weight problems (2.7 kg), Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. I chose Dell Inspiron 8500 with 2.6 Ghz P4-M, 512 DDR, Geforce 4200 Go, 80 Gb, 15'4 1920*1200 TFT, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, DVD+R, Extra battery
Asher apparently had a little different priorities and bought IBM T40.
Hope this helpsQue l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

Well in that case I don't have an anwer for you. I can't really tell wich is "better" Both have their pros and cons. But in general competition often lowers prices and tunes up the quality. In Mac world there is no competition.
What do you think? Wich one seems better?Que l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

I've never owned a Mac and have next to no experience with Macs but I am very familiar with PCs. There for I'm more likely to continue buying PCs in the future. I just wanted to hear what people thought about Macs that's all.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

The powerbooks are excellent computers but pricey and as laurentius says "one size fits all". I'm not familiar with the capabilities of the P4-based laptops, but IMO the G3 and G4 powerbooks were superior to the laptops of the time (at least for running the work-related software I use).Originally posted by Oerdin

That's what you get for buying a desktop CPU disguised as a "mobile" device. This is what I was talking about with poorly designed laptops.Originally posted by laurentius
