Processor temperature

Is 50C considered hot? My Athalon64 3200+, which is clocked up just a little to 2.3Ghz sticks around 39-40 degrees for the most part, and gets to around 49-50 when playing things like FEAR or BF2. Is that good, average, too hot? Just wondering, I don't know what to base it off of.

Why do laptop chips run so hot anyway? Ignoring the fan, what is it about their construction that allows them to run 20-30 degrees hotter than desktop CPUs?
