Laptop overheating can cause severe damage. Sudden shutdown failures or randomly appearing screens of death could mean you're smothering your notebook. My last notebook literally melted on my bed as I blocked up its cooling fans on my pillow.
This expensive (and time consuming) lesson taught me to respect the little vents built into the bottom and sides of all notebooks.
Rather than purchase one of many fancy notebook stands available on the market, I decide to hack my existing veggie rack/tray and this has become the most comfortable invention ever for 'vegging' with your notebook on the sofa or in bed.
I call it my 'knee-breather' - it's a knee cooler notebook stand and I can't live without mine.
They're so easy to make (get your mother or wifes ok ahead of storming into the kitchen and hijacking her vegetable rack).
I hope you'll enjoy yours as much as I love mine !
