Using a Laptop in Portrait Orientation

Hello,

I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 and use an external keyboard and mouse with
it. I have tried using it in portrait mode (rotating the screen and the
laptop 90 degrees) and it seems much more comfortable (except for
uneven colors on the screen).

You can see the pictures here:

I was wondering if it is alright to use a laptop this way, or will it
risk damaging the components? One of the vents is covered, but I can
remedy that easily. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

- Tarun
