    There are a few enthusiasts that have done it but as stated above, the notebook no longer becomes portable...

    You can probably submerge your laptop in veggie oil. Then it'll be "liquid" cooled (just not "water" cooled). It will definitely help your cooling. Just as long as I'm not responsible for cleaning your laptop when you need to take it to work/class/your mom's place.

    Also, htwingnut: made me laugh! Nice one.

    It's as thick ad heavy as a Clevo W860CU, and same abysmal UPS grade battery life of 1hr, but the spec is simply... underwhelming.

    Well, we might see more successful watercooling setups in the future, but this fujitsu notebook is definitely not one of them...

    Its more of a moveable computer than a notebook. xD
    But i guess someday we will get a more effective cooling solution than air thats actually managable for a notebook.

    Comparing size of most desktop liquid cooling solutions to the biggest chassis available to notebooks, I came to a conclusion that by the time something similar is available for notebooks it will be considerably outdated and obsolete.
