    Thanks guys. Also it would be a huge help if any of you would be willing to send the survey to friends/family. We are supposed to collect around 200 responses.

    @Johnny T
    We are required to come up with a few different problems so that if one doesn't work out, we have backup plans. Some of the other problems we are currently considering involve eye and ear fatigue related to the usage of electronic displays and headsets for long periods of time. We also have some relating to organization and security of electronic equipment.

    Completed.

    I have a quick question, will you be looking at additional cooling in the form of accessories or at doing a redesigning of current cooling schemes as in better heat pipes, different materials and fan blade pitch, rpm, etc?

    @tijo

    We aren't sure yet. The idea that was stressed to us is to come up with problems, not solutions. Once we select a problem, we will evaluate various possibilities for a solution. If you want to follow our progress, everything will eventually be posted on our webpage.

    Hey everyone, thanks again. Also, if anyone knows of any other good forums that would be a good place to post the survey, that would be awesome.

    Ask in The Random Thread as well. Maybe one of the mods will allow it to be posted there in addition to here. However, crossposting is usually frowned upon.

    The question is about you and your perception not about laptop. The question is well formulated.
