Easily Flammable?
What kind of pillows are you sleeping on? Any laptop worth its weight should be able to manage its thermal load enough to keep from starting a fire. If the device starts to overheat - it should shut off.

And any pillow that can be started on fire by the heat from a hot laptop - isn't safe and probably not even up to fire code for bedding.

I say the laptop had electrical issues before this started - probably why the user had to use a pillow to keep the hot laptop away from their legs.
