I am looking for a fan for my laptop. I have a Samsung Mclaren and it heats up like crazy. I have a USB fan currently...but the left side of my machine still gets really hot. I have been using a CD case to prop it up and get even more airflow to keep it cool.

Clean at least once every 6 months or so. Dust buildup really ****s with the airflow.
It is still fairly new...and still works great. It just doesn't seem to be enough to keep up with the massive amount of heat that my computer puts out. It doesn't burn my legs or anything because of the padding that the fan provides...I am just worried that I am going to ruin the laptop.
There's one I bought for my boyfriend that cost about $50 bucks, and it's still going on strong 5 years later. I bought it so long ago that I forgot the name, but look for the one that costs $50 and has dual fans with a little rubber like thing that holds the laptop.
You'll need this pretty soon, because heating up can fry the video card or motherboard at the least and burn your house down at the worst.
I got this fan about 2.5 years ago for a former roommate who is a big WOW player but refuses to upgrade her non-gaming laptop which she's had since 2008.
Just spoke to her ... she is still using it. She says it's bulky and gives the laptop a 10 degree or so slant. But she likes how it has prevented auto-shutoff episodes.

Got any tips for a good fan or cooling device?

My Dell doesn't have any airflow problems (unless I block the intake, but that's a given), so have you considered doing what Rodyle recommended/
