Okay, time to up the Nerd factor

As my laptop is still a bit on the hot side (though taking it apart and putting it back together again did help somewhat), it's time to dismantle the thing, add a new thermal compound between the processor and the heatsink and hope for the best. So if you don't see any updates over an abnormally long period, I screwed up. Though I'm quite positive; the instructions start with: 'Don't put it in your mouth'. Although it does classify me as hardware: 'Instructions to clean it off yourself, your CPU, and other hardware'. At least I've had a dummy run, so I know where the screws go...
