I don't think Sandy Bridge processors have been released to the general public yet. We were chasing broken MCEs in Nehalem that reported bad memory all the time. Various kernel hacks worked around it until a BIOS fix came along. I wouldn't be surprised if this is just another broken MCE, especially if the laptop doesn't feel hot.
