From all the images of the Zenbooks that I've seen, it would appear closing the lid would obstruct most or all airflow, potentially overheating the machines.
Is this the case? Can they be used with closed lids to allow external monitor use (like a desktop computer)?

I’m confused. (1) wouldn’t closing the lid make it go into standby? (2) does it really vent the hot air up instead of to the side? It doesn’t look like it.

Many computers will not go to standby if an external monitor, keyboard and mouse are hooked up. Even if it does, I assume standby could be disabled. – oKtosiTe – 2012-06-01T08:04:49.160
To me, it looks like the air is vented up against the screen, but perhaps there are other openings that I missed. I don't own one of these (yet). – oKtosiTe – 2012-06-01T08:06:41.683
