Overheating is possible. I had it on my coffee table (...it's a laptop) and the fan underneath may have been blocked somewhat by a magazine the laptop was sitting on. Reminds me of a good idea you had mentioned awhile back---where you glued plastic caps onto the bottom of your laptop to help give it "clearance" for better air flow. I should do that!!! This laptop is 5+ years old now, so it'll probably be on its last leg soon. -- Michael J.
