Folding Forum

For sure. I was not indicating that machines that fold will overheat any more than others though

Yep. definitely. We need to get it out. I'd rather have a noisy computer than a hot one. I've burnt myself on the headphones jack a couple of times. Having AC 24/7 isn't real good for your battery though is it? I wouldn't imagine a cooling pad is useful if you want it on your lap. How about somethin...

Yeah, my machine averages about 18h a day, whether it's on mains or not. Of course battery life is shorter, but the fans don't worry me (just the people trying to sleep next to me )

Cheers,
