Although it seems great that laptops keep getting smaller and faster, a tradeoff for aesthetics and performance is effective cooling. Modern laptops get hot, and have been know to catch fire, explode, and burn those who use them. Apple’s notebook line has always been criticized for getting hot and from experience I agree. However, that isn’t to say the other manufacturers of laptops in the world don’t have the problem. My HP Pavilion notebook gets very hot, to the point where I can’t stand it on my lap, especially around the hard drive.Brian Krisch performed an experiment to see just how hot a laptop gets after watching a movie. To perform the experiment, he used a Dell latitude D620 and a new Macbook.
