[QUOTE="walkum13, post: 773022, member: 62142"] +1 A lot of people, once connected to their external display close their laptops lids so this is very common and I'm sure Apple has tested this. You can just turn the brightness to zero if you'd like ( I do this sometimes) but don't worry about overheating anything. The way the unibody works as a heat sink alleviates your heating problem as long as you have proper airflow. Just make sure it's not smothered by a pillow or under a blanket on your couch and you will be fine. [/QUOTE]
