I got mine the day they came out, but I was just wondering if people still have these problems with recently purchased macbooks. thanks

do you think a firmware upgrade is in the works?

I just got my macbook last week (week 30 of production), and it has yet to even get uncomfortably warm. I would say, at most, that it gets around 100-110 degrees in the upper left hand corner, which is NOTHING in comparison to my Dell 5100 laptop.

As far as mooing, in complete silence (no TV, music, fan, etc) I can hear, BARELY, a bit of mooing, but if I didn't know that mooing was an issue, I wouldn't even have noticed it.
