If you missed this deal the last time it came around, you’re in luck! It’s back and even cheaper.
Need a laptop cooler? This dual-fan Antec USB-powered laptop cooler is currently $27.99 at Buy.com, with an available $20 rebate. (Offer valid through January 13th, 2008.)
I did pick this one up back in September, and have been using it happily ever since. The rebate came quickly, too.
(My brother-in-law contends that the cooler “chewed up” the battery in his Dell laptop, though he also said that Dell replaced the battery for free as that would be considered a defect. I told him the solution was to buy a Mac. He didn’t seem to think that was all that funny. Huh.)

Awesome! There’s also a -$10 Google Checkout promotion going on, so if you aren’t already a Google Checkout member you’re actually paid $2.01 to have the pleasure of a cool laptop. (In theory anyway, we’ll see when my rebate comes…)

I fail to see why these are a good thing. I love to put a warm and toasty laptop on my lap. Maybe it is because I live in the frozen tundra. he he he

We both have one, and I recommend them highly.

Amen, sista! Show the Mac love!

I just noticed that Buy.com offers a “free” magazine subscription if your order is $25 or more (as this one is, since the total is calculated pre-rebate). But if you look at the fine print, if you don’t want the magazine you can submit a form for a $10 rebate. So… with both rebates, you actually earn $2.01 if you buy this laptop cooler…
Mir, you are the prettiest and the bestest!
