I had 2 Toshiba laptops in the last 3 years. I am happy with them, but the heat might be a confort concern. (i leave my coffee cup there and it stays warm longer that way!)
Toshiba laptops have 2 or more different heat sink/fan design depending on your laptop model. Just google your model and you will run into sites showing how you can clean the dust on your heat sink/fan area.
Some designs are great, it never gets cloged. And some designes collect dust over time and that causes the heat.
