money wasting

[johnstalberg]

What is "Aircraft Aluminium"? I understand what aircraft means and are wondering about the metal itself, is it different from other kinds of aluminium used as structures in comparable devices and how, if at all?

[john685711]

will this work on my hp compaq nc6400

[mrcanadiantech]

@john685711 it will work on practically any laptop

[TGameNTech]

Looks nice, but a little overpriced for a inclined fan/stand.

[hialeah1234]

A little pricey in my opinion. there's plenty of other laptop coolers/stands for half the price.

[idkthetime]

what is the difference between this and a piece of wood? beside the price? plz tell me.

[hX4r15]

There is a thing you need to understand when making reviews on stuff thats a bit more technical.

It's like showing us a GPU, but not showing the benchmark.

You are respectufly one of the best on YouTube, and you should have shown temps, before and after.

Thanks, hope you read it. Charis A.

[Mario4Italy]

wow thats a waste of 80 bucks, but hey i bet other companies will make exactly the same thing for 20 or 30 bucks

[wirgiukass]

good idea :) i just love products they make for macs

[stuntguy3000]

@KienDien

Am i meant to care about your whining?

I mean, You went to the effort of making 4 BORING posts.

......... #FAIL

[darrinLin]

@stuntguy3000 I liked his posts because they are actually logical, albeit vulgar and contains more of a review than the video itself. #informative

[KienDienn]

"oh, they sent me free shit so i have to give them a good review, so this product really helps typing better and cools your laptop (no proof)" or the honest route

"this shit fucking sucks, save your $80 and get a fucking tree branch to raise your laptop, the branch will cool your laptop as much as this shit fan"

[wwwinsanelygreatmac]

@KienDienn If you think that, then I look forward to never hearing from you again.

[KienDienn]

@wwwinsanelygreatmac I don't care what you look forward to. I pointed out critical flaws in your review which were obviously due to you side-stepping the fact that you don't know how to review laptop fans or you don't want to review a terrible product because you got it for free. Be honest to your viewers. Next time I want a hamburger review, I'll make sure to contact you so you can describe the ergonomics and qualities of the box/wrapper it comes in because nobody cares about what matters.

[hialeah1234]

@KienDienn trololololol

[KienDienn]

who the fuck would pay $80 for a product that accomplishes nothing. what a cheap marketing ploy targetted at impressionable ignorant consumers. if you were at all a respectable product "reviewer"(?) you would not co-sign this trash.

[KienDienn]

the product has far-side vents that blow at the bottom of a laptop with an aluminum base. the laptop base has no vents to begin with, and on top of that, the fan uses the hot air produced from the rear of the laptop to blow at the metal base of the laptop. HOW FUCKING POINTLESS. This is the same thing as blowing a fan at a metal sauna expecting it to cool.

[KienDienn]

i can't imagine this being an effective way to cool your laptop.

how is there no review on how effective it is? it's a laptop cooler review with no tests, graphs, or figures discussing its effectiveness and a great deal of time was spent talking about how it tilts your laptop for better ergonomics, wtf.

this video review is booty. (in a bad way) (also, not in a pirate way)

[MultiElectricdude]

i was watching till u told the price

[jajajajman]

what do you use to record? please respond!

[Davydude7]

I had a previous generation Moshi zephyr for my old white macbook. It didn't do anything when the CPU was really revved up, as the internal fans still went to full speed and CPU temp didn't really drop.

[Ninja26806]

Wish it could like physically be attached. So I can carry it around with it hanging on. Like a clasp on option

[Ninja26806]

OMG I need it

[Mattieee0wnz]

its nice they have a usb passer but there is no excuse for macbooks to only have 2 usb ports...

[TheReconSquad]

There's an app called SMC fan control which allows you to control your mac's fan speeds, it also shows you the cpu temp. it's a free app in the mac app store.

[wwwinsanelygreatmac]

@TheReconSquad You can do this if you're really worried about temperature, but generally I think the fan controls work fine. The idea here is to reduce the cooling needs so the CPU fans don't need to run as high, making as much noise. Also as a stand for typing.

[DannyC440]

Yep, it's pretty pointless...

[thoskens78]

nice and portable

[GTRv96]

Laptops should really need cooling stands. I mean, they should be able to cool themselves, even when under load.

[iColorado303]

@GTRv96 engrish?

[wwwinsanelygreatmac]

@GTRv96 Like I said, they do, but this can help keep it cooler if you're concerned about such things and also cut down on noise.

[TheMoose2010]

@GTRv96 also, if the fan gets filled with dust and you aren't the kind of person who would like to open his laptop case, or it just isn't openable, this could help with that problem.

[thetechzonelive]

I don't understand why they are marketing this product for MacBooks. It will work with any laptop.

[wwwinsanelygreatmac]

@thetechzonelive Like I said, it matches the finish.

[Technoguy3]

@thetechzonelive Apple users pay more for stuff that matches.
