They're sticking more and more transistors into less and less space. They run hotter as a consequence. One of the drawbacks of having more computing power.
There are several computers the fundamental designs of which are totally rethought for hardware-light Linux apps (Windows can't even wake up without a pound of gear). We were considering buying one of this type before we got our Compaq. We will find the link in a bit, but note that several of the smaller kind do not have fans because they do not need them.
Evidently it needs a tax break.

ARLINGTON, Va. (AP)—Philadelphia Flyers left wing Patrick Thoresen was released from the hospital Saturday after tests revealed no serious injury from a shot that hit him in the groin.
Thoresen lay writhing in pain after blocking Mike Green’s shot in the third period Friday night of a 5-4 loss to the Washington Capitals. The 24-year-old forward was taken to Washington Hospital Center, where he underwent two ultrasound tests.
“My groin area is sore and swollen,” Thoresen said in comments released by the team. “I can’t really walk properly right now. It hurts.”
Thoresen rested at the team hotel while the Flyers practiced Saturday.
“Everything checked out OK. They were checking to see if there was a rupture. There was none,” general manager Paul Holmgren said.
Holmgren said he wouldn’t be surprised if Thoresen played in Game 2 on Sunday.

Hey, all you "Deep Thought" fans!
Mark Penn — whose firm, Burson-Marsteller, owns Mr. Black’s firm — stepped aside last week as chief strategist for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign.
Mr. Black resigned from his firm, BKSH, the previous week.
Mr. Black has worked for some o0f the city’s most controversial clients (Jonas Savimbi, Philip Morris, Blackwater) and with the baddest boys of Republican politics (he cut his teeth on Jesse Helms’s campaigns, and was a mentor to Lee Atwater).

A few months back my PC was making god awful noises and suddenly shutting itself down for no apparent reason. Microsoft kept sending me conflicting crash reports. So I convinced myself I needed a new hard drive. As I took the case off to install the new hard drive I noticed that the fan was periodically grinding to a halt and shutting down the whole thing. So now I have a $20 and an extra big honking hard drive.
I would like to briefly note that no one has commented on what heinous crimes atrios must have committed upon his laptop to drive it suicidal.

Daughter in college has a Toshiba satellite that has a flaw where the heat sink fills up with dust and overheats shutting the machine down. Couple years ago found instructions on the web to take the thing apart - down to the mama board. Really very easy. So I took it apart - cleaned the heat sink and put together again. Success.
This spring break same problem. I take apart, clean, put together again. Turn on and screech/boom it shuts off. I ask daughter, did you back everything up fore I started this. Oh I got a well deserved shit storm from her.
It all worked out - not sure if re-clipping the various parts in and out, or starting while holding F2 down did it. But for a couple hours I had ruined her life - term papers and all.
So back up before you get that new fan!
