[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 510337, member: 16911"] Your computer will not be damaged from using it for one of the purposes it exists for - playing games. All Macs can play intensive games for days on end. Yes the fans may come on occasionally and yes it will feel hot to the touch, but there is really nothing to worry about. The computer companies know these things get hot, which is why they call them notebooks and not laptops anymore. The computer can handle the heat far better than your lap. The iMac can run intensive games no problem. There's no need to get a Mac Pro due to heat concerns. Yes, components can have shortened lives due to heat stress, but face it, you're not going to be using any computer you buy in 2007 in 10 years time. [/QUOTE]
