Off topic..laptop lap pad ideas?
#3
I found one at Barnes and Noble. Hard plastic surface with a padded cushion on the bottom. I like it a lot. DH has one that is hard, but has a padded covering that he likes. I think I found his at Office Max.

Seems to me that anything you make to protect your lap from the heat is going to further overheat, and potentially damage, the laptop. The point is to increase the airflow, not decrease it. They make all kinds of laptop coolers and I'd go with one of those, just to be safe. Why risk damage to the laptop just to have a funky handmade mat? http://bestlaptopcooler.org/

DH has an expensive one with cooling fan but prefers the $10 one I bought at Walmart. He said it was the best he has used. It's big wedge shaped and comfortable and lightweight. I bought a few more for future use. I haven't seen any more there like this. The manager told me it was a special buy so no idea if more would be available.
