Re: Overheating problems with long continuous use?



My TP stays docked and, therefore closed for days at a time. No problems.

Keep in mind, the best mode of heat transfer is conduction, not convection.
You don't really gain anything by having it open unless you have a fan
blowing off the side of your desk.

The processor is heat-sunk to the bottom of the case anyway and is virtually
thermally isolated from the keyboard/LCD panel.
