I've been wondering about that myself!

Right now my best guess is that air is pulled in through all of those little vents on the bottom.

Yeah, having examned the laptop carefully I think these are the four vents. Anyway it seems clever that it is not one vent only - it would be too easy to obstruct it inadvertently

This does however take the 'lap' out of 'top'.......

as placing the machine on a soft surface.........

!could cause cooling issues!
