Until you can find a way to cool a laptop CPU passively, you're going to need airflow, so sealing the case is out.
Although building the platform on ARM (as we presume the Tablet to be) probably fixes that by simply not using a laptop CPU. Not to say that you can't have a passively-cooled x86 system, but are any of the new integrated platforms cool enough for that? Given the power you can get with ARM SOCs these days, it may not matter.
