As a recommendation I would definately consider having them clean about every 6 months and use a cooling stand as well.
Yes, I use a stand and a fan-cooler underneath. But I know of video DJ's (video uses more ram = more heat) that actually mount a fan next to it and blow across underneath the stand, however, laptops (as Doug said) are notorious for this.
