    Buy a lap desk. The one I have is mad by targus (?). I think all have vents on the bottom. You need to raise it up so it has a chance to blow.

    Ahh, I've had mine like that for quite a while. Both sides of the CPU's cover were removed, but only on one side can you see the computer's 'stuffing' :p

    Rarely enough, my computer does a preety good job with all the basic programs, and even photoshop, and oddly enough, it does better than other computers...

    o_O Is that center fan attached to the mainboard with TWIST TIES?!

    XD I'm trying to figure out what's funnier, that or the fan scotch taped to the cardboard around your video card.

    You're taking the term Jury Rigged to a whole new level.

    There are explicit instructions not to store game systems on carpets, you know, and that's probably part of the reason. ;)
