I got a dell inspiron 8000 laptop for xmas and I am thinking of using that as a wearable. I have pretty much everything figured out asside from a couple of things. One issue is battery life. One website sugested splicing the power cable and hooking that up to some batteries. I would rather not have to do that. I have 3 batteries right now, I am thinking of getting some more and just hot swapping as needed. The other issue is overheating. If I have the laptop in a backpack turned on, how can I prevent the laptop from overheating? I live in WA state, so its cold and rainy most of the time but durring the summer it gets realy hot here. It can get up into 90's here in the summer. One more thing. At some point I plan on getting a USB twiddler. Would a USB twiddler be able to bring the laptop out of standby mode?
