[QUOTE="MunkeyQ, post: 1235574, member: 129637"] The computer itself isn't going to be generating any heat at all, as it's switched off! Worst case scenario, the insulation isn't enough and the computer reaches the same temperature as the air in the car. It's like putting a chicken in the oven - the inside takes time to reach the same temperature as the oven because the meat around it is insulating it from the heat. Wrapping the laptop in clothes insulates it. This is exactly the same as putting it in a coolbox. Clothes don't make it any hotter magically. Sorry if I'm getting a bit short with you; this is basic elementary school stuff. [/QUOTE]
