    I just got my new dell inspiron 700m today.
    After almost 2 hours running, I found it's so hot,almost 90 degree besides the touchpad.
    I read the reviews about 700m saying that it is really cool.
    I'm wondering something wrong with my new laptop?
    Does anyone have such kind experience? Need your comments. Thanks

    Well, I don't own one, but that is a very high temperature, especially for a laptop with the Pentium M processor. I'd be very concerned and would want to get that checked out immediatly.
