Yes, I agree with you, Joezon... If you want to use the computer for a long time or run large programs, you should use a desktop.

What I have been doing is having a fan blowing on my laptop while I am using it when it is hot out, here is a helpful link to ideas on how to keep your laptop cool: http://ezinearticles.com/?id=1417758 The cooling stands can be found on amazon and you can get one for about $20, hope that all helps

Hi Baoxinw, nice to meet you... I want to help you. But the information you less detail. Where you use the laptops? In travel or at home? Is there a program that runs continuously? Do you use a temperature monitoring program? Laptops are computers that are placed over the lap. There is air space between the thigh. Laptop cooling system is located at the bottom. If hot laptops, then your thigh akan fervor, and you will think to turn off laptops. Laptop heat faster if placed on a table, the lack of air circulation, except the pad and the fan. Laptops are designed to meet the needs of the trip. For a short work, not for a long time. Laptops are smaller, faster hot. I use a desktop to work at home, and laptops to work in travel.

Some laptops will get hotter than usual and burn up a component. Best to do is get a laptop that is recommended or popular. Look for reviews. I have had my laptop on and in my backpack with a small pillow around it. It got very hot, but still worked. You can buy a cooling fan for laptops , that will keep it cooler. There is also the fact that you place it on a bed or on another ....

I also use a laptop and I am conscious with its temperature sometimes since high temperature can burn some hardware parts of my laptop. My laptop is Acer and it doesn't heat up that much compared to other laptops. But then I always make sure my laptop is well ventilated every time I use it. I rarely use it on the bed as the heat sink will not work properly and my laptop temperature will rise. I have also seen Compaq laptops and they really heat up fast. One good thing would be to buy a fan for it - the one you can put under your laptop. You can also just use an electrics fan targeted to your laptop every time you use it. I do this sometimes and it works.

if high temperature ca break cpu,your cpu is too weak? i don't know how temperature your laptop rise up to,temperature in cook egg out didnt break cpu so quick, laptop got very hot when they work soon,else old laptop has much dust inside, dust prevent from cpu fan releasing heat, you have to open the back of laptop and clear dust, or you will buy cool stands to set to the back.
