Delph1 <mailto:andreas.galistel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>  writes "Laptops often
comes with two Achilles heels, heat and limited battery time. There are, if
not cures, at least remedies to make them less obvious. By lowering the
<http://www.nordichardware.com/Articles/?skrivelse=465> voltage to the
processor you can not only drastically lower the heat dissipation, but also
increase the battery time significantly. NordicHardware gives a nice walk
through on the process and was able to boast 18% lower temperature and a 20%
reduced power consumption."
