Don't get Burned by your Laptop... - since the processors are getting so much faster, they inevitably run a lot hotter than they used to. The newest problem is called Laptop Burn. Literally, it runs so hot that it toasts your legs, if you leave it there too long. The worst thing to do is to place the laptop on a pillow on top of your legs. That will block airflow and cause it to get hotter and possibly burn out the motherboard. Laptop Power Supplies have been known to melt as well as some house fires where someone left the laptop on the top of the bed or comforter for a long time. So, with that said, please make sure to check out our Laptop Stands to keep both your laptop cooler and your legs from getting burned!

Get Ready for the Cloud... It's time to start considering your jump to the cloud. Believe it or not, you already have some experience with the "Cloud". If you have an MSN or Yahoo account, you save files up there, and use their email services, then your already using it. Pretty soon, everyone will only have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The internet cable will plug directly into the monitor and your connected. No more CPU or failing hard drives, etc.  Your stuff will be housed on the server (physically away from you) stored on a server far, far away. Hmmm..  sounds like big brother to me. I guess we'll see where that ends up.  Refresh will be offering it's own version of "Cloud" services from you to choose from. You'll be getting cutting edge, with world-class service.
