Heat Insulators for Laptops
Alex Bischoff writes "The Gadgeteer has a review of a product called LapPads from LapLogic. They're heat-insulating pads to protect you from cooking your lap when using your laptop. Depending on the model, they apparently provide up to 57 degrees (F) reduction in heat transfer. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?"
Yeah but during cold winters nothing short of a cat can keep your lap quite so toasty warm as a Compaq with a fresh battery.
I've hit Karma 50 and gotten a Score:5, Troll... I win!
When I saw this headline, I thought to myself, "I bet some loser is going to post a link to the story about the guy that burned his penis." Thanks for not disappointing me.
Which, while not ideal, is marginally preferable to cooking your genitals.
They're called towels.
Have you read my blog lately?
A hot computer on my lap is the only action I get.
Best Windows Freeware
People seem to get really upset and mad when they smell burnt testicle.
;-)
Perhaps now some penis oven mitts?
Some say this heat thing is a problem... I say kill the sperm. My laptop is my birth control method
Lap heat is a problem with you? Pay less now!
Cardboard-based Italian lap thermal protectors for $10 only! Half the price of that thing! Get one with pizza inside for only $20!
I've used these inventions before, they work really well. Only we used to call them pillows.
You had me at "dicks fuck assholes".
I call it "pants"
Hey, for some of us, the laptop and the genitals are in symbiosis - neither would get much use without the other.
The delicate balance of this relationship is mediated by DSL, screen cleaner and paper towels.
But you have to make sure you tell IE or Firefox to reject all cookies or else... well, it could be messy...
I've removed my CPU fan and covered my CPU in that lappad stuff. I'm now looking forward to a faster, cooler, quieter computer....
What's that burning smell.....

I use a phone book. Sure, it doesn't look as cool, but it's virtually free. Of course, I had to move to a larger city first, as the Elyria county book is less than a cm thick, and tended to let a lot of the heat through.
This is where I get my recommended daily allowance of "Foot in Mouth."
Because most of us wear pants when using a laptop?

My laptop is my birth control method
I think that goes without saying in this crowd...
for women who don't want kids.
After countless wedgies in grammar school, I couldn't procreate if I saved up until I was 90!
This method was discovered by a well known scientist. Now you, like him, can learn to build up the size of your penis in only one hour!
Circumventing a heat transfer mechanism? Isn't that outlawed by the DMCA?
Yeah. God damn those on-topic posters.
It gives a new meaning to the term "weenie roast"
Will it prevent the laptop from overheating when its using is surfing pr0n sites?

It's the laptop, duh.... Primarily because most of us will find a use for the laptop in our lifetime. ;-)
Murphy was an optimist.
