Never had anything burst into flame, but my mom's laptop definitely goes over any safe limit; I don't know if the fan's shot or if the thermal paste just needs replacing, but it regularly gets hot enough almost to burn skin with prolonged contact. For now, she's got it resting on a cooling lap pad while she uses it, but I suppose soon I'll have to spend a couple days my parent's house and tear the thing apart.
