Is it better to leave all the furnace vents open even if you don't use that particular room very much or is it better to close the vents in that room?
I close the door and vents to rooms I don't use on a daily basis because I don't want to heat rooms I am not in. That can get expensive and it's not "green".
If you have central air conditioning should you close the vents in unused rooms?
yes it would save money :)

Cose the high vents in the winter and low in the summer..

What to do when one room is colder than the rest of the house?
without doing major changes, just open the door and open the hot air vent to the max and close other vents in the house slightly. the air flow that is diverted from the other rooms has no place to go except the cooler room. It is a good idea to find out why that specific room is colder that the rest of the house. How is it different from the other rooms? Do the incense test: light and incense stick and approach it to windows, doors and vents. Observe the smoke. It should go up as a straight column. If it is being blown sideways in any direction, that indicates the presence of a draft and once you locate the source of the leakage, plug in accordingly, with caulk or weather strips.
Are gable vents necessary if there are roof vents?
Gable vents are actually counter productive when used with ridge vents. It is better to have ventilation at the soffits which will create a draft drawing in cooler air and exhausting it through the ridge.
What is the best laptop cooler?
There's 3 types of Laptop Cooler: Active Cooler Pads Passive Cooler Pads Muti-Surface Cooler But before you choose, you need to check your Laptop to see exactly where the vents are located because you will want to buy a Cooler Pad that will do a good job of increasing airflow and cooling your Laptop - not one that will make it heat up faster because it blocks the air vents! for example if the vents on your laptop are uinderneath then you will want a cooler pad that raises the laptop, so the pad does not block the vents. Check Laptop Product descriptions carefully. A good indication as to whether a product is any good is to check the Best Sellers lists on Amazon - currently the best selling Laptop Cooler Pad is the Cooler Master NotePal X2 Laptop Cooling Pad with 140mm Blue LED Fan (R9-NBC-4WAK-GP). It has 749 reviews and an average rating of 4.3 out of 5 stars.
Can you have two thermostats on one furnace?
Yes, but if it is not zoned, you will just overheat the area with the other thermostat. Which ever thermostat is in a cooler area will make the warm area of the house warmer then you want it. If you have adjustable vents, just close down the vents in the warmer part of the house or where the thermostat is, and the cooler parts will get more heat because it will run longer to make the thermostat reach temp. Don't close them all the way, just start at half and see if this works, adj as you need or until you get the results you want. If they are not adj, you can either get them or be creative to block some of the heat coming out. I also believe you would have a duel stage furnace also.
How many square feet apart should you place vents?
Air vents are placed based on the required cfm load calculation per room not necessarily set at specific square feet apart. But you need to make sure that supply and return air are not close to each other. Supply air vents should be placed close to outside walls and return air close to interior central walls.
