  FREMONT, CA, Apr 22 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Antec, Inc., the global leader in high-performance computer components
and accessories for the gaming, PC upgrade and Do-It-Yourself markets,
today announced the three newest additions to its robust portfolio of
notebook coolers: the Notebook Cooler Basic, Notebook Cooler Designer and
Notebook Cooler Mini. Crafted to combine effective, quiet cooling with
maximal flexibility, desirable ergonomics and high portability, these new
products give users an array of optimal notebook cooling solutions no
matter what their notebook or environment. 

    The Notebook Cooler Basic is compatible with Mac and PC notebooks up to
14". Its slender perforated aluminum panel passively cools notebooks by
dissipating heat and providing air channels for natural airflow,
resulting in silent and effective cooling that extends notebook lifespan.
The Notebook Cooler Basic's built-in flip-up stand also angles notebooks
to provide wrist relief and raises notebook screens closer to eye level,
minimizing neck and shoulder strain. 

    The Notebook Cooler Designer is designed with a sleek, slim-line form and
light overall weight, ideal for fitting comfortably on a lap or suiting
any desktop replacement arrangement. It extends notebook life thanks to a
USB-powered 110 mm blower that spins at a quiet 23 dbA, drawing in heat
from the bottom of the notebook and exhausting it safely to the rear. The
Notebook Cooler Designer is compatible with Mac and PC notebooks up to
15".

    The Notebook Cooler Mini is Antec's smallest notebook cooler option and
is designed for use with Mac and PC notebooks up to 17". Created for the
utmost portability and cooling effectiveness, the Notebook Cooler Mini
weighs just 0.4 lb (0.2 kg), yet features a USB-powered 80 mm, 30 CFM
blower that dispels heat and lowers notebook temperatures by creating a
layer of positive air pressure beneath the notebook. Its inclined form
factor also angles the notebook's keyboard and raises its screen for
increased ergonomic comfort. 

    The latest Notebook Coolers join Antec's existing notebook cooler line
that includes the Notebook Cooler Classic, Notebook Cooler to go(TM) and
Notebook Cooler 200. "With the worldwide increase in the number of
notebook users, more diverse cooling solutions are needed to handle each
individual user's needs," said Scott Richards, senior vice president of
Antec. "Antec's new line of Notebook Coolers is an essential part in
helping to ensure stable and reliable notebook performance for everyone."

    The Notebook Cooler Basic, Notebook Cooler Designer and Notebook Cooler
Mini are available now for $24.95, $39.95 and $29.95 respectively through
major retailers, e-tailers and distributors. The Notebook Cooler Basic,
Notebook Cooler Designer and Notebook Cooler Mini are covered by Antec's
AQ3 Antec Quality 3-Year limited warranty on parts and labor.
