It's becomming more and more common for people to use laptops everyday over desktop computers. And everyone knows that the number one enemy for laptops, besides viruses, is overheating. How do you keep your laptop from overheating?
I currently use something similar to this. If there are any better methods, I would like to know; especially since my laptop is practically my lifeline in my dorm. |

I have a powerbook g4 and the fans come on when it gets warm. They rarely come on if its sitting on a surface because air gets to the bottom of it. If I am laying down or sitting in the living room and i want to put it on a pillow I get my laptop cooler that is just a thin flat surface that covers the bottom of my laptop. It plugs into the USB port and there are fans in it to keep it cool as well as some ventilation system to allow natural air to reach the laptop. It is similar to this. If I didn't use that it would get warm since there is no way for air to flow and the internal fan would be on nonstop.
