How to Cool That Flaming-Hot Laptop

I don't know about your laptop, but my new MacBook laptop operates like a stove top.

For some reason, many of today's laptops give off a hellish heat.

When I brought up my burning-hot MacBook on Saturday's radio show, callers phoned in their complaints with Gateway, Sony and H-P laptops operating at high temperatures too.

Which led to these two fantastic discoveries:

Several listeners recommended these two sub-$25 solutions for not burning yourself "down there" when you've got a steaming laptop.

The Lapinator: A heat barrier designed to go between your laptop and you, the Lapinator uses "Thinsulate Insulation" to keep things cool for about $25. It's pictured at right

The Coolpad: Another laptop heat blocker, available in two versions: a $20 travel version and a $25 "podium" unit that's pictured at left.

If your laptop's bottom is too hot to bear, these products can help. Your fellow consumers went to the trouble of phoning in to the radio show, unsolicited, to talk them up.
