On *some* laptops they can overheat when the laptop is running and the
lid is closed (because some of the cooling venting is being blocked by
the screen/lid).  You need to be cautious about leaving a laptop running
in that state.

If you can feel airflow anywhere where the lid would cover up, I
definitely wouldn't close the lid on that laptop and leave it running.

no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages
posted to the mailing list.

When it comes to electronics, I'm slightly biased.
