Catty notebook
Okay. Our desktop computer died this week, and we replaced it with a Toshiba laptop/notebook. But! We have three cats, and I don't know what to expect from cat + laptop.
Let me 'splain....
I have an iBook that I've carted around since about 2000 or 2001. It hasn't been our main computer for a long time, but we do use it when other computers die or we just need something supplemental.
One cold winter day, a couple of years ago, I had the iBook plugged in and turned on, but with the lid down. It was cold in the apartment, and Dubby, our big orange tabby, was crashed out on the iBook, absorbing its heat. But, obviously, he was also radiating heat back to the iBook, and I couldn't get the thing to work for hours after he vacated. I assume it overheated.
When we're not using the iBook, we tuck it on to a bookshelf where no kitty can bed up on it.
Should I do the same with the Toshiba, or was my iBook problem a fluke?
