Again, I've seen peripheral devices like portable hard drives that fail after a year of use because the fan got gunked up and the unit overheated. I can only imagine a laptop going the same route.

I expect that by now all computers are equipped with thermal shutoff sensors. I understand that my old 166Mhz Pentium has such a mechanism.
