Intel Finally Researching New Pillow Proof Airflow.


I guess its taken a long time for the designers at Intel to realize many people like to have their laptop on their bed, pillow, or even their lap. The problem? Whenever your laptop is on a bed or pillow, the vents get clogged by the sheets. Well Intel has finally heard our cries!!

Recently, Intel has shown interest in creating a more bed-friendly, mobile processor design. The modified chips will cool better, without the need for many fans.

Additionally, the restructured chips will allow for thinner designs of new laptops. I hope this works out, as I've had many laptops reach dangerous temperature levels after dozing off during a midnight browse of the web.

It's about time. I've actually burnt out a chip because of this problem and it was a pain in the ass to fix.

This was a long time coming. Heat issues in laptops have been prevalent for years.

That is really cool, if only they implemented that 3 years ago, before my laptop broke about 400 times for 2 years in a row before i said fuck it, and jumped on it.

Laptops that have high end computing are going to have problems escaping from this... they just generate a ton of heat....

This sounds like a waste in spending for their R&D. They aren't taking AMD seriously, are they?

Mr Bacon said...

That's a good point Mr. Moment. I reckon these laptops will have lke 2GB ram TOPS, which is really bad in this day and age. They need to wait until nano-technology is in its final stages of completion so it can be implemented in everyday things, and most of all technology man!
