A lot of Dust

Today we finally decided to locate the cause of my laptop's overheating problem. Long story short, Alex took it apart and discovered and incredible amount of dust almost completely blocking the heatsync. After cleaning it out, the temperature of the processor only got up to about 120 on startup, when normally it could get up to about 160. Quite the improvement I think. Hopefully it will remain functional. By the way, if you have Windows XP, download the zune theme, it's a lot better looking than the default XP themes.
