It is an A20m. My wife got it a number of years ago so she could be away from the office more easily... When this problem first began, I thought it was windows so I blew everything away and reinstalled (twice over a 6 month period). Didn't make a difference. I have heard from others that this is known to happen, from time to time, with some thinkpad models. I found it interesting to note a review of one of the new IBM laptops as stating that "it runs hot".
I've had both a T23 and a T42 and the only time I had a heat problem was when the fan on the T23 died. And generally, the fan only runs when under heavy cpu load.
I haven't had any issues with my T42p either.
