    Hi, I have a mid 2009 Macbook pro 17'' and recently installed windows 7 to be able to play some games, but I noticed that the fans, that we're most of the time unnoticed running OSX, now they're being. Because of the demanding of the graphics and cpu running games, the macbook pro gets hot at the top of the keyboard and most of keyboard area. I've been researching trough the web for some cooling pads, but most of the users say that they aren't very effective for macs.
    So I'm posting here to hear some ideas for cooling pads to keep my macbook pro cool.

    Thanks

    Since the original search link I posted doesn't work, do a search on the forums for "cooling pad" and you'll find a number of similar threads.
