Claim:
A laptop computer comprising: a system unit, wherein the system unit includes a set of heat sources; a video display unit movably attached to the system unit; a set of air inlets and a set of air outlets on the system unit, wherein the set of air inlets allows air to flow into the system unit, wherein the air flows over the heat sources within the system unit to form heated air, and wherein the set of air outlets allows the heated air to flow out of the system unit; a set of tubes located behind a video display within the video display unit, wherein each tube in the set of tubes has an inlet and an outlet in the video display unit; an air connection, wherein the air connection connects the set of air outlets to each inlet in the set of tubes, wherein the set of tubes have a form such that heated air passing through a constriction in the set of tubes changes in velocity and pressure in order to satisfy conservation of flow rate, and wherein the heated air produced by the set of heat sources is extracted from the laptop computer through each outlet in the set of tubes.
