    Good morning all. I recently purchased a HP HDX laptop (20.1" widescreen, dual 2.1 GHZ, 4 gb ram, geforce 8800m gts 512 mb). I'm guessing this thing puts out quite a bit of heat while gaming, so I'm wondering how other HP HDX owners cool their laptops... laptop tray or pad? Please send link to whatever you feel is best... I've looked for laptop cooling pads, but can't seem to find any big enough for the 20.1" display. Thanks..

    Doesn't need it. You won't see the GPU go over 70 deg C during gaming. Averages mid 60's. The HDX has excellent cooling. And this is with ambient room temps of 78 Deg F.

    So enjoy. :)
