    i hate to hear that because i hear its the best cooler around really. i thought about getting the xpad i hear that is good for your lap but not as good in the cooling department.

    I have the zalman for my 6860 and it fits on my lap just fine. It cools the same as if it were on the desk. Just need to keep your legs apart since the fan sits in bottom middle.

    sounds promising. the nc2000 does seem like the best out there. i guess now i need to know if it will all fit in the backpack and i'll be good to go.
