Re: [BLUG] Looking for a netbook

Of course my meaning was that the problem of heat is *dramatically* reduced.

I'm not talking about sealing it in an insulated plastic bag but, barring that, I don't worry about it.

With my previous laptops, I had to.

 Um, yeah ya do. Its true that hard drives are usually the first thing
to fail under thermal load, CPUs are probably the second.

 Electronics (all electronics) create heat as part of their operation
and often need to have some ventilation or cooling in order to operate
properly.
