"The technology world is becoming increasingly mobile-oriented
these days. The Internet is present in everyone's lives. However, it's
not about choosing between life and Internet anymore, it's about the
integration of the web and life, and leveraging its power. Thus
notebooks are growing more powerful and more mobile than ever before.
Even though the days of scalding-hot laptops are gone, laptops still
need cooling in order to increase its lifespan. Passive coolers have
only been marginally effective. Active coolers tend to be noisy or as
bulky as a second laptop. Most people try them for a while and
religiously lug around a clunky plastic stand with their other laptop
gear. Eventually the coolers just are stuffed in a corner to collect
dust. So what does one do? Is there an effective passive cooler that

has the answer with the iXoft Notebook Cooling Pad."
