Thanks avj, you have provided the evidence I did not have time to prepare, before you posted. The news feed is obviously the cause of problem. In my case it was exacerbated by the fact that I usually kept the home page open and viewed posts in another tab, so the CPU load was always nearly 100% - hence the heat generated. Shrinking the News Feed panel on the home page reduces the cpu loading dramatically.

2) Medion P4 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, quite fast & stable
3) eeePC 901 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, fast & stable
4) eeePC 701 32bit LL3.8 1GB ram, slower & stable but small and light enough to travel with me to New Zealand when visiting family in Blenheim.
