Acer :: Drill A Few Holes In The Chassis - Lower The Temps

I've been thinking about drilling a few holies in the bottom the chassis for air intake on my laptop. First I want to hear your opinion about whether I'm thinking soundly or am just plain crazy.

The underside of my 5536G looks like this: [url]

What appears to be an air-intake right below where the fan should be (right hand side, close to camera), is only a ribbed area in solid plastics. This is where all other laptops I have seen have their main intake holes for air. The 5536G however has to rely on the small intake holes on the hatch to the left (which conseals the RAM) and a another equally small air intake in the front (you can just about see it in the pic).

Now the question is, will I lower the temps by drilling a few holes right below the center of the fan to let some cold air in, or will I completely mess up the chassis airflow which Acers engineers have carefully crafted? As far as I understand, laptops use radial fans, and cold air should be supplied in the center of the fan. The way it is now seems to work against that idea: cold air has to somehow be sucked through the spinning fanblades, not enter it from the center (no hole there!).

I am getting temps around 95 degrees C under load (2.2 GHz Turion), undervolting lowered that to about 83.
