I ordered one of these, it will replace my current T22, which I'm
going to reconfigure for my wife.

I did this yesterday, and it seems to have helped.  There wasn't much
heatsink paste on the CPU when I looked at it.  So I slathered the
stuff on.  I can now do things without the fan unit that I don't think
I could do before with it.  But I still get a forced poweroff if I
keep the CPU at 80-100% for 20 minutes solid. With the fan unit on,
though, I've been running with very high CPU usage for over an hour
with no adverse effects.

Thanks, everybody, for the advice,

Micah
