On my 3 1/2 year old T41: I already needed to fix the cracked hinge.  Then, 
before I got to, the screen started getting pink.  Today, the fan has started 
to rattle slightly.

How common is it that a rattling fan turns into a failed fan?  What temperature 
overage should I watch out for?

It looks like replacing the fan is not trivial (requires a properly shaped 
tool, and thermal grease).

My T23 died completely (system board failure) one week after the 3-year 
warranty ran out, so I feel lucky!

Thanks for any ideas...

TK
