I'm on a libreboot + x200 machine. Notably it never overheats... unless
it's docked. Then it's liable to overheat, because the circulation
while being docked is, I guess, pretty bad? Unfortunately, I am docked
pretty much all the time!
Do you use a dock regularly, out of curiosity? It could be that it's
time to open up and de-dustrabbit :)
