I saw a similar temperature on my T41, but have since switched to APM
rather than ACPI, so I can no longer tell.

I notice flexing of the keyboard on the right side -- is that what you
mean by "vibration"?  It seems to be due to the UltraBay (it's a lot
more solid on the left side).  I'm planning to swap the optical drive
for a dummy when I don't need it; that might firm up the keyboard a
bit.
