e1505 heat issue?

Has anyone else notice their e1505 getting slightly warm after an hour or so.

I've noticed (just in the past three days) that the right part of the keyboard side seems to get slightly warm. Not so much that it's uncomfortable, but it is noticable. I'm not sure if this is due to it being charged (running on ac power) or if this is just normal after a period of time. So yeah, something else I noticed that I wanted to share.

 

Yep, it gets a little warm... right side next to keyboard, and on the bottom... The degree of heat will vary depending on how well ventilated the machine is... (Ie if its on a bed or something where the vents on the bottom cant get any air).

This is more or less normal... it doesnt get overly hot like some models, and the heat that is present isnt under the wrist rests (where it was on my 600m) so its not an annoyance.

The heat will likely be less when on batteries... as everything is kicked back a notch power wise.

 

mine has stayed cool just by putting a magazine or two under the back of the computer
its a poor mans cooling pad

 

if the e1505 is identical case wise to the 6000 the heat on the right of the keyboard is the harddrive.... right now i just have the back legs propped up on decks of cards and i run a fairly large desk fan to cool it. i'll probably get the bytecc cooling pad from newegg.com soon though

 

mine's hot too
but not annoyingly so
