How do I protect a conference table surface from laptop heat, coffee rings, and daily wear?

The best protections are: place a glass top cut to the table size for hard-surface coverage, use individual desk pads or blotters at each seat for laptop heat absorption, and mandate the use of coasters for all beverages. Laminate surfaces can handle mild heat from laptops, but sustained heat from coffee makers or external monitors can cause surface bubbling on lower-quality tops.
