[QUOTE="GradStdnt, post: 1435613, member: 266765"] Yeah, I did that, and there was no active application consuming more than 4% CPU. I brought up the Google homepage with Chrome and had Activity Monitor up; that's it. Still, system CPU usage at 85% at times. Anyway, I guess we can conclude this is a hardware problem. Driving 3 hours both ways tomorrow to Genius Bar so they can likely charge me 500 bucks for a repair that would have costed me nothing if this happened 2 months ago. It's certainly a first world problem I have here, and I shouldn't get too worked up about it. But just wow. Worst timing ever. [/QUOTE]
