so if I have such a copper heat dispenser I got from taking a laptop apart, I can feel cool ?

  It's not just a heat dispenser, it's a peltier [1] a device that can produce cold from electricity. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_effect

    Well, it can transfer heat when electric current is applied. They used these for processor coolers in the 90s, I remember my father had one and it broke one day and so his processor let out the blue smoke.

      I had one as well. Same experience with a brand new AMD Athlon XP 1800+.
