Yeah, about the only thing that you can do with a laptop to upgrade it is to put in more RAM. Sometimes you can put in a bigger hard drive, but that's usually pretty unfeasible... In almost every case, it's easiest and cheapest to completely replace the laptop than upgrade it.

Laptops are usually always hot because it's so portable unless you look into this specific criteria before purchasing it. If you don't use it on your lap and such and have it on a flat surface most of the time, you can look into getting a cooling fan. Here is what I mean:
