Using a popular business laptop, the Lenovo T60, we put the Xpad to the test by running CNET Labs' grueling Multitasking test on the system and recording the CPU temperature. Running the test without the Xpad, the CPU got as hot as 80.8 degrees during the test. After a cooldown period, we ran the test again, this time with the laptop on the Xpad. The highest temperature recorded during the second test was 74.4 degrees, a significant decrease.
It's a shame then, that the Xpad is so heavy, bulky, and just plain ugly. With such a notable decrease in temperature, the Xpad offers effective laptop cooling, and a cooler-running laptop is good for both your body and the life of your laptop.
