In my experience, by far the biggest factor is what surface you put
directly in contact with he base of your Ti.
If you recently started using your Ti on a strong insulator (on a
cushion for example) of heat, then that would explain it.
Ideally you want your Ti sitting on a surface that conducts heat
well, or even better on one of those stands that allows air to
circulate and more effectively cool it.

On a side note, I was in the Apple store checking out the new
MacBooks last week. They run just as hot as any Powerbook has. Then I
was shocked to learn about one of the causes (too much thermal paste
on the CPU!!).
I wonder if the earlie Powerbooks have the same problem. I'm almost
tempted to take my Albook apart and check the paste situation :)
