    For the cooling you could use it under water that could help some i guess.

    Waterproof notebooks exists, but they are very expensive (search Panasonic, for example). Most of descent Samsung models have something like spill-resistant keyboard (as they claim, I didn't test). Anyway, idea to make average laptops as much waterproof (and dust-proof) as possible is really good

    For the cooling, you could use a water cooling system. Kind of ironic if you think about it :P. But also, a more conventional, and more affordable solution, would be to have air filters over all of the fans. Not completely waterproof, but it's something. Also, for USB ports and such, you could easily have flaps covering the port if nothing is plugged into it, so that protects against water there.

    To solve the cooling problem, you could put some sort of gel or other material inside the case which has can absorb most of the heat... or something along those lines

    yea,but a passive cooler would not be good if its turned down, so the inviroment will cool it down: sand for example^^
