I know. My office has a condition.

The first step to solving a problem is to blame someone. If I can't
blame HP, would you consider being the designated culprit?

Walmart sells round white grippy pads with AAA adhesive once
the grease goes off your laptop with methyl chloride raising
vents just so for better cooling and no slip on slide surfaces...

I use a door matt with lumps and bumps to improve the air flow under
the laptop. Everything I've tried to stick to the bottom of my laptop
usually falls off when the car gets too hot and the glue softens.

The grease remover is usually just alcohol, not methylene chloride or
dichloromethane (furniture stripper).

That would be a Dell Inspiron e1705.

Slow CPU <2GHz. Limited to only 2GB of RAM. No HDMI port. Only XP
drivers available. Nice 1600x1200 optional display but with limited
viewing angle. Did you actually pay money for this thing?

The literature says it's for a "road warrior". Are you a road warrior
or do you prefer to ride in the dirt and mud?

The cooling system is not always designed as badly as the HP.
Here's a Dell Inspiron 1525 cooling system:

Note that the weird shaped bottom hatch give me access to the fan
after I remove the heat pipe. I would have liked to also have access
to the fan intake, but it was easy enough to clean with a brush and
pipe cleaner.

those grippers are cuttable nicely anchoring an Amazon Otter Samsung5

the 1705E's fan left fan went out. An English site gave the screw by screw takeapart. I was surprised finding no access plate....intro laptop.

I was involved in a new mixing room project at a major yum yum pie factory.
One day several gnomish bakers came in milling around the entry double doors where dough carts would come and go...soon a burly suited man dragged a tall thin man in bounced him off the floor several times shouting waving his arms pointing at the door, grabbing the thin man's lapels ect then throwing him out

you got it....the new door was in a major wrong place in a new finished wall.

One day in a cardboard box factory the boss grabbed me and told me to make a drawing of the die room where the new rotating storage rack system was to go. (kind of like that conveyor your dry cleaning goes on only industrial sized)

He was VERY clear. He did NOT want it to scale. He wanted it in an hour so he could generate a contract. Do NOT waste time drawing it to scale. Probably told me 3 times.

But if you know the dimensions, it's just as fast to draw it to scale, so I did.

Turned out the rack system couldn't fit in the room! We had to redesign, but catching that mistake saved the company a lot of time and money. (not that I saw any of it)
 
NOT building a Dell with fan access doors suggests Dell cooling fans or fans generally run on but my fan did not....I dunno the stats on cooling but we are here...

the larger room fans run on....

Yep. We're slowly loosing our local white, red, and tan oaks to
phytophthora ramorum (sudden oak death).

Rumor has it that it's caused by puns and bad joaks.
