[QUOTE="eric, post: 278865, member: 22327"] at work i use a 15" HP laptop in the manner you describe. 12 hours a day, and when i'm not here, i leave it locked, not shutdown. i'm sure the macbook can handle the same thing. i'm not sure how much a fan "mat" will work as the macbook has no ans or slots on the bottom. i guess it couldn't hurt as long as it's not usb powered (in this case, it may be a wash - causing and trying to dissapate heat at the same time). as far as having it for your primary machine... as long as gaming is low priority, you'll be fine.
