SONY VAIO BX Series VGN-BX640P54 NoteBook Intel Core 2 Duo T7200(2.00GHz) 14.1" SXGA+ 1GB DDR2 533 100GB 5400rpm Dual layer DVD Burner ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 - Retail

I just brough this laptop. I've been running installation software and winzip software. I noticed the bottom of the laptop runs really hot. Is this a defect? The reason why I ask is because I though the Core 2 Due is suppose to run cool compare to the Core Due.

I've also added another GB of memory from Corsair, but I don't think this could cause the problem. Any ideas why? I have a simular laptop from Dell with a Core 2 Due T7200. This laptop runs pretty cool. Not sure why the Sony runs so hot.
