People arent against mining on a laptop for the power usage, its because of overheating. Laptops arent designed for continuous CPU/memory usage and therefore dont have the cooling needed for 24/7 mining.

But, if you want to try it, Id suggest downloading the Minergate software, running the benchmarks, and letting it pick the best coin to mine. A lot of people started out with https://minergate.com before getting serious.

I actually did do minergate myself; not just pc but via my android too...its crazy though- their fees are too high! Any other suggestions? To be honest, I dont even use my laptop much and I only intend to make use of the limited amount of time that I spend on it...So basically no intention here to mine 24/7... I use my laptop for highschool too so I need it to run for at least 2 years (minimum)...
So any other ideas or comments?
