I had a feeling I should have mentioned this... :-) Yes, my two T60p's were
manufactured a year apart. So your sister's machine could have it happen
too.

You can tell her to watch for heat in the upper left corner of the keyboard,
and also on the bottom of the machine in that same area. If it feels really
hot there and the machine locks up, that's the same problem.

Heat in the bottom right of the keyboard is the hard drive and isn't related
to this problem.
