Please, the system doesn't get any hotter or anything when it exceeds 100%,
however what could affect heat, is if your program is using the FPU. If it is
not, the FPU is powered down. Another thing is that a high load on the
Permedia2 makes it hotter. Anyways, my system is (usually) properly cooled,
and completely open atm, since i have just broken my pcmcia adaptor, and a
network connection is needed here.
