Hi,

I have a Macbook Pro 15" and wanted to know which was the best stand/cooling pads that folks here have experienced.
Parameters are as follows:
1) I'll be using it maximum sitting on a bed with the Macbook on my lap
2) Budget is max $30...with a tolerance of $5 in case the offer is irresistable
3) Primarily used for photography processing (though I dont think this helps much

)

I searched the forums for such threads and the couple I have found are more for ppl who have desks and work(for a profession) on their Macbooks.

I have looked at the below as an option -
Amazon.com: Belkin F8N044-BRN CushTop Notebook Stand (Chocolate/Blue): Electronics

Any suggestions welcome

I use a coffee tray of the wood variety with 4 2 inch high rails around it think
I picked it up at Target for 10.00.
