It should be fine, you have to rememeber you have alot of parts in there that generate heat and not much room for it to escape. My M1530 generates a bit of heat but its normal just keep an eye on ya cpu temps if you still paranoid.
Im using Coretemp as this is what i have been recommend on several other forums and it shows the cpu model as well as frequency and voltage and most important the temp. Works on my laptop and desktop, one being a single core and the other a dual core. Hope this helps
I recently had my motherboard swapped by Dell, when the graphics card failed (believed to be due to overheating!!)
Anyway, while the technician was disassembling the laptop, we found that the Mini PCI cards (the Intel 4965 WiFi card and the Bluetooth module) were quite hot. These sit almost directly under the touchpad. It appeared that these modules generate quite some heat.

The mini PCI area runs pretty hot unfortunately.

Some food for thought, I guess :)
