dont see it being a big problem as most guys at their laptops are looking at prawn and having a chugg anyways, so "sperm quality" is irrelevant

My lappie lives in the truck as i despise the fiddly tinny sounding pile of poo....yeah i hate lappies. When i do use it it's on the Volvo steering wheel or the caravan table so is no threat to "little Guy"!!! I would'nt be without it as it keeps me online when i'm not home but i'm happier with my desktop, big screen, big sounds...I'ts a no brainer really. 8-)

This made a faint bell ring in my head and a quick check on a website I used to read/contribute reminded me.  There was a report on this issue back in 2004.  Scrotal hyperthermia it's called apparently.

I can also remember something about the microwaves laptops emit being a potential issue as well, but there's no point trying to put a barrier between the notebook and your lap as the frequency they give out can pass through solid concrete. 

Never mind.  Probably a good thing if my latop makes me fire blanks!  ;D
