Could it be that they call them "notebooks" because of the heat? I've got one on my lap at the moment writing and I suddenly noticed how hot it's getting. Needless to say I'm not too keen on boiling my eggs; how would you cool your laptop sufficiently to comfortably use it on your lap?

Put something on the back of your laptop in order of elevating the backside (where the cooling system is located), it'll do miraclesI will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

Laptops are no longer supposed to be used on the lap or any soft surface, really, unless you take care not to obstruct the ventilation. Mine has a tendency to overheat when using it on my lap and playing graphics-intensive games.Comment

yeah, notebooks aren't for use on your lap
you need a true laptop, which are generally light and portable notebooks

My laptop could fry an egg after one hour of Civ4, so it's better to do what I suggested you to do AND switch if off after a while, I also leave it upside-down when it's not working so the heat goes out quickerI will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever.

Trouble with thin and lights is the price...
My laptop is Core Duo T2300 (1.66Ghz) w/ 1Gb DDR2, ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 with an 80Gb HDD @ 5400rpm. It's not exactly the fastest machine but was an absolute steal at £750 at the end of April.
I could halve that specification and double the price for a true "laptop" but that's not an option... so there has to be some way to have my cake and eat it. I've tried underclocking and I can get the clock down to 1 Ghz but then I lose that extra 666Mhz when I'm at my desk."I work in IT so I'd be buggered without a computer" - Words of wisdom from Provost Harrison

My laptop only gets hot when I'm playing games, and that's awkward to do on the lap anyway."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
