Hi Lawrence,
Try using something to raise the rear of the PowerBook G4 up. You could use
2 large rubber erasers and place them underneath the rear feet of the
PowerBook. That will allow some circulation of air in the rear side, hence
lowering the temperature a little. I believe the Coolpad also does the same
thing, albeit with more finesse...
Cheers,
Mark.

We were talking about the heat generation from my Ti Book, and I
wanted to add to the discussion that the main culprit is having the
mains charger left plugged in.
If I unplug it when the battery if full, the temperature drops by quite
a lot, but if I leave it in even when the battery is full the back of the
base, below the screen gets very hot.
I use it as a desktop unit for 8-12 hours per day, so having to
unplug and reconnect it all the time is very boring.
I use a PowerBook as I also work at home.
