    Wait until you actually get the laptop and see how bad the heat issues are before you get a cooler.

    Often, a passive cooling solution (simply propping it up off of the desk with erasers, for example) will be sufficient. I used Knex to build myself a stand for my T500, which reduces temperatures quite significantly.
