Are You Making Laptop Toast?

Proverbs 28:26 He who trusts in himself is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom is kept safe.

Do you rest your laptop on your lap for hours as you work?  Do you kids?  If so, you need to take note.  According to a medical report the heat from the laptop can reach up to 125 degrees and with persistent use can be cause "toasted skin syndrome." The discolored skin that results may be permanent.  Swiss researchers believe that in rare cases this can lead to skin cancer.  Although, they do not site any actual cases of skin cancer caused by laptop usage.


If you insist on lounging with you laptop on your legs (exactly what I'm doing as I type) you need to protect yourself by placing a carrying case or other heat shield between your legs and the laptop.
