    Hey, kind of found this out by chance, but if you set your coffee cup next to the vent on the side of your laptop, the heat keeps your coffee at a rather ideal temperature.

    Please be very aware that coffee spilling on your notebook is a bad thing, so use extreme caution when attempting this.

    The 1029's combination of Southbridge chipset in cooperation with the Turion cpu and x700 are specifically calibrated to maintain a sustained thermal dynamic flow of 94° Fahrenheit.

    Other laptops may theoretically have the right combination of hardware, but can not be guaranteed to perform up to MSI standards.

    I agree that this is a useful feature. However, consumers of chilled beverages should be aware of potential hardware incompatibility problems that may decrease the useful life of your beverage.

    These pictures demonstrate a potentially incompatible configuration.
