    Can someone point me in the right direction to finding a good laptop cooler for my 13.3" laptop?

    Thank you!

    I really liked that one, but read a review that it's made for 15" laptops and that a smaller laptop might not fit well on it because it might not sit on the rubber (that keeps the laptop from sliding off) well.

    Do you think this is accurate?

    Is it pretty quiet (to use in college lectures) and portable?

    I got Lapcool 4 for my Sony SZ, which is 13 inch and fits perfectly.

    I got Lapcool 5 for my Sony TZ.

    I decided to go ahead and try the Zalman nc-1000. It's gotten a lot of good reviews...lots of people seem to like it...and it seems to be around 12" - so it should be portable...and my laptop should fit on it.
