IBM T41 Overheating?

[sadalja]

Hi:
I bought an IBM T41 2 months ago. I absolutely love this baby. The last week or so, I have been noticing that the laptop heats up on the front left hand corner. The fan kicks in a little late, and then cools it off. However, before the fan kicks in, it is really hot, and I can't keep it on my lap.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks !

I have that on my R40 sometimes, it's just the memory heating up it no biggie

Haven't experienced that.. have experienced that the right palm rest heats up, to the point where I can't keep my hand on it :<
