Just wondering if the fans on gateway laptops are standard in that they either suck in, or blow out, from the bottom fan? Ordered a P-172SFX and am trying to find a good cooler that matches the kind of fan it will have, so I'll have it when it arrives. I had overheating problems that caused the demise of my poorly-designed dell E1705, so I'd like to avoid this in the future =/ And I don't want a cooler that blows against the fan. Thanks

From my experience with a single Gateway, I will jump to the conclusion that they follow the standard "bottom intake, vents out the side/back" idea.
