Steam coming from under the hood...

As I was on my way to work this morning. As when I approached the stop sign I noticed that car temp was reaching "hot" and the steam was coming from under the hood. Luckly for me that I was only 1 block away from my work. When I was able to stop and shut off the engine with teh hood openned and noticed that the expansion tank was just bubbling like mad. Mine 90 Saab 900 did not gave me any indication that it was in any need or any symtoms at this point. The car only has 103K pampered miles on it and runs like a top. Am I looking at a bad head gasket or just bad thermostat?? Please help!!
