[QUOTE="Dominion, post: 248732, member: 11061"] Yea I plan on picking up the applecare for sure. Especially with the problems I've seen and heard and know first hand what heat damage can do to a computer. I guess best case scenario is to take it apart using ifixit's guide and reapply the paste. I recently moved and lost my work bench so now I'll have to find a new way to keep safe while I do it :P What did you use to clean the paste? I've always used small amounts of 75 or 99% isopropyl but not sure if I want to after seeing exactly how much paste is (as you put it) spooged on. I'd be getting the 2.16 ghz MBP with 2x512. The 2,200 one (after reduceing the price by making it 2x512 and edu discounts) [/QUOTE]
