My home made notebook cooler

Been having a hard time finding a suitable notebook cooler for me. I’ve gone through almost all types of coolers available on the market today. Cheapest to the premium priced, single fan to 4 fans, usb powered to adapter powered but yet none did met my standards. I decided to go ahead and build my own notebook cooler. Played around with acrylic and other materials but what happen was I need to jack my notebook up to get the best air flow. This worked fine while on my lap but not when place on a desk.

Creating Partitions with GNU Parted

Hi, its me Raja again. This time I talk about parted, an alternative to fdisk for linux. This is my second screencast, so the quality is not there yet. The youtube video somehow seems a little burry, so you may want to look at the higher quality .avi version. Anyhow, comments are much appreciated on how to improve this screencast.
