Ron,
see "Thermal Issues" here:
http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/debug.php
My guess is that ACPI (and thus Linux) have no control over
the fans on this system (as I've never seen a Dell with
OS controlled fans) If the fans are spinning fast when you
heat up the machine, then they are probably clogged with dust
or there a mechanical issue with the thermal solution.
cheers,
-Len
