    Where are the intakes for the air on the Zalman NC1000?
    Can I put this on my lap or on a pillow?

    The iLap has had many good reviews and I'm about to buy one. I'd try that out.

    Macs aren't good for doing the kind of gaming you're trying to do. Cooling is just one reason.. even if you can cool it off enough you're still not going to get the same performance you would have off a PC.. If you bought that computer intending to play those kinds of games it was just a poor choice. Plain and simple.. good luck to you.
