[QUOTE="P1127, post: 1158464, member: 183520"] I am looking to buy a 15" Macbook Pro as my first foray in to Macs (Win7 getting up my nose). What worries me is the reports that these, and a lot of other Apple hardware, run very hot. Apparently this is due to Apple daubing thermal paste everywhere (which is obviously an insulator when there is too much). [url=http://www.techpowerup.com/11403/Overheating-MacBook-Pro-mystery-solved.html]Overheating MacBook Pro - mystery solved | techPowerUp[/url] [url]http://laptoping.com/macbook-pro-overheating-problem-misapplied-thermal-grease.html[/url] Is this still the case? If I buy a £1600 Macbook then it has to be better in every way than my £500 Asus, which is a cool runner with the same i5 processor. Thanks in advance folks.:) [/QUOTE]
