Just received a Dell Inspiron 7000, 333Mhz, 64 MB RAM, WinXP Pro.  Installed
SETI, SETI Spy & SETI Driver.  Noticed after running SETI for a few minutes,
processor fan came on.  I realize that this is probably normal, as SETI is
processor intensive, but could I damage this laptop running SETI 24/7?
Anyone have any tips for running SETI on laptop?  Should I RAMDisk?  Thanks
for replies.

I've had the NT client & SETI Driver running on my laptop for over 2
years now - the only thing I've had to be careull about is that the
heat output from the CPU doesn't end up scorching the desktop :)
