Well I really DON'T think the PCMCIA cards overheating are causing the problems simply 
because the processor sits right above these cards. If they overheated, the CPU would 
obviously overheat as well and go into thermal shutdown. My experiences with my 
overclocked L50 at least show that it doesn't take much to trip the thermal shutdown 
thing (immediately after thermal shutdown, I flip the keyboard and put my finger on 
the heatplate and can *JUST* keep it there for a few seconds before it gets too hot to 
keep my finger on it ... which means its running an awful lot cooler than, say, my old 
GeForce256 where I couldn't touch it at all!). Of course, it could be that Toshiba 
went the other way with the L70 or that I've just got a really sensitive temp diode in 
my old libby ... I notice that my new libby (L100) runs a LOT hotter than my old one 
(the heat plate could get too hot to touch even for a second yet it'll still be 
happily buzzing along).
