I have a 15 inch MacBook Pro with retina display.
I've read numerous articles and posts online about how ice packs under a laptop is a bad idea. However, every post mentions that condensation would occur, screwing up the components.
I would like to try something else. I know that the Pro draws air from the sides. For this reason, I plan on keeping the ice pack out of the way from the air vents, and directly beneath the logic board section of the MacBook.
Would this be viable? Or would this setup (which takes care not to let moisture get inside the machine) not work?
Thanks Guys!

UPDATE: Thanks Guys! All of the replies below were helpful in shaping my understanding. I can imagine water condensing on the components inside and it ain't gon be pretty.
Thanks Again! NEVER EVER AM I GONNA TRY THIS STUPID IDEA
