[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1064526, member: 24098"] While I agree with the points that have been made here already, I'd like to add one simple thing... ALL modern notebooks run hot... all of them. It's just the nature of the beast. Ever since notebooks started approaching the performance level of desktops, that has been the case. You'll notice how manufacturers never refer to them as "laptops". There is a reason they've almost universally move to the term "notebook". It's because they're really not designed to be used on your lap. Sure, we all do it - but if the heat really bothers you, do yourself (and your notebook) a favor and buy a lap desk. Any lap desk will do -- the thing to remember is that you want your notebook to have a little bit of room to breathe, that's why they put feet on them. [/QUOTE]
