Damn, for $30, that thing is a really great idea.
My girlfriend's laptop is always overheating and freezing up, I'll have to look into one of those for her.
Thanks for the info; I didn't imagine that something like that existed.

MikeVega 09-18-2004 10:13 PM

Shit I need one of those, I just use my laptop for a mediacenter pc on top of the television, but it really cooks while streaming anything over the network.

yeah, my girlfriend's laptop has the same problem. seems like the fan stopped working.

hopefully, i can find one of these in canada.

Doesn't it make the laptop even larger though? :helpme


Seems like it might make things a bit clunky.

Seems like it might make things a bit clunky.

that particular model is less than an inch thick, less than 12 inches wide and weighs just under a pound. so it's not too big.

it would fit in most laptop cases without a problem and it'll slide under most laptops and be completely concealed.

for home use, it's no problem. for travel use, the extra weight/space is negligible.

MikeVega 09-19-2004 09:20 PM

It's very light and plugs in the usb...it's about a 1/2 inch thick...but i find no problem with it and it's working great...

rowan 09-19-2004 09:22 PM

psyko514 09-20-2004 01:05 AM

managed to find one on www.tigerdirect.ca (they have a few models).

should be shipped tomorrow. hopefully it'll help my girlfriend's laptop.

pornguy 09-20-2004 01:10 AM

I have been thinking about getting one. My laptop gets pretty hot when I have a bunch of stuff running on it. It already has 2 fans inside, but the way they build them now, they sit almost flat on the desk.,
