[SLL] Laptop getting a bit warm

I've got an Acer Travelmate 2400 series laptop, running Slack 11.0. I
use it typically for web browsing, email and stuff, and will probably
have a media player going in the background. Problem is, this thing is
getting way too hot--ACPI has recently shown 70s C--as hot as 80. I
looked into the air ports on the side and bottom--don't see any dust
buildup, really. Is the temperature of the room an issue? The laptop
used to run quite a bit cooler than this--typically more around 50s,
sometimes getting up and over 60, sometimes up to mid-70s during a
huge Gentoo compile. Any suggestions (before I melt the processor to
the heat sink)?
