Hello friends, thanks for answering and thinking about my question.
Well, my Pismo has 756 MB RAM. That's not bad, I think I used it on several surfaces (last time on a flat one, not cooling: on a stack of paper... Yes, right, not good. On the other hand it can not be purpose of any exterior aspect to cool down a laptop - or does it? Of course a blanket is the worst underground. I just let a (second) Pismo 500 MHz with max. RAM (1 GB) delete (securely) many files under OS-X 10.4.11 The PB became extremly hot. Too hot (nearly) to touch. I finally removed the keyboard and cooled it down with a fan. My impression: it might be the modern software (OS-X) which could overwhelm the old ones (?), as Sasuke mentioned.
