It’s a cool, cloudy night, and I’m tired. Before I tuck in early, apropos of nothin, this thought:

I usually keep my laptop on a special table in my living room, which pulls up close to my sofa or chair. It has one of those laptop cooling bases with high speed fans. You can see it here. But tonight I felt like kicking back, getting comfy and holding the computer on my lap in the chair.

I know that a lot of folks use their laptops this way all the time. How do they get past the fact that these laptops get so warm? And doesn’t having the machine on an uneven surface put stress on the case? I might not write anything tonight that’s worthy of so much as the Recycle Bin, but I’ve got the most high tech personal comfort device on the block.
