Definitely keep it off your lap if you're a guy, as there's evidence your sperm count will be reduced because of the heat transmitted by the laptop.  On the other hand, that could be a method of cheap birth control.   

Lorelei:
Mine sits on a lap tray (bed tray? what are those things called?!) which has a lip around the edge. Since it is a large laptop, this works well. I put a paperback under the other edge to keep it even, and it has lots of airflow beneath it. No heating problems here.

This has been the case ever since laptops were an "Extremely portable 42 pounds".

Ambular:
I'm partial to the idea of taking a regular desktop tower and bolting a handle on top and a flat-screen monitor to the side.

I bought a Toshibia Qosimio G30-Av4 october 2006.


I was actually about to get that one, but decided it was too huge and expensive and opted to get the Satellite P105-S9722 a month later. Haven't had any problems with it since I tried installing my free Vista upgrade, but that's just because Vista sucks. When you say it couldn't boot into Windows, did it show the Toshiba logo at boot and then the Windows XP screen with the progress bar? It could have also been a driver issue, OEMs never release up to date drivers for their hardware especially video card drivers.
