[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1012816"] I wasn't speaking to you but to the OP (of course). Your reasoning for using SMC is sound, but I didn't say anything like "SMC is verboten," I said there's no rationale for using it to override Apple's design for the cooling system. Apple *specifically says* not to use their notebooks on your lap (and tells you why). That's why they don't refer to them as laptops: [url=http://www.apple.com/support/macbook/care/]Apple - Support - MacBook - Care and Handling[/url] [/QUOTE]
