I am using the Ergostand. I would definitely recommend it.
It can be used as a stand only, a cooler, provides better cable management.

Hi

thanks for your suggestion ?
i have one Q.
Can i use it on my lap? will it be comfortable?
by the looks of it , it seems , it needs an even surface?

You can use. Comfortable? No. Its pretty heavy. If used on lap with the laptop itself, will pain for sure.

I am also looking to buy a cooling pad for my 6165tx.. however i want to make sure that the cooler that i purchase belongs to the Group B category since the 6165tx belongs to group two as per the article..Tip: Buying a laptop cooler? Make sure you get the proper type! | Tips 'n Tricks | dotTech

Could you please advise if the cooler that you ordered pushes or pulls the air from the bottom of the laptop?

oh god!!!
should have checked this before ordering the cooler . :banghead:
i will let u know once i get the cooler . (probably this week) .
i think it pulls air away from the bottom .
I hope I can reverse the fans :pray:

thnx for the info

@saurav

are you sure 6165 belongs to group two?
for me it feels like air is flowing outwards when the fan was running .

@rajasekhar911

Yeah, I think so....my 6165tx pulls air from the bottom of the laptop and exhausts it from the left air vents (near the projecter/vga output).

BTW I bought a Cooler Master Notepal X2, and it is doing a pretty good job.

Thanks.
