ORICO Readies NCA Series Passive Laptop Cooling Pads
ORICO is working on a new line of passive notebook cooling pads that are made of thick sheets of perforated aluminum with rubber feet and grips. Designed for 15.6-inch and 14-inch notebooks, these coolers raise notebooks at a fixed angle, from where passive air cooling takes over. CGI drawings reveal that the aluminum sheets that make up most of the pad dissipate heat from the notebook to the air. The perforations on its surfaced are designed in a way that allows users to strap PC fans on to it, of almost any shape and size, and at almost any specific region of the pad. There is no word on availability.

Not that this product will be super effective anyway.
if the concept of the design is for the aluminum sheet to act as a thermal conductor, ok I see where they are going with this, BUT... THEN... they add raised rubber pads which defeats the whole purpose of the concept, not even taking account of the fact that laptops themselves have rubber feet that acts as insulators between the chassis and the pad.
I used to do this with my old Alienware M11x when clocking it.
