[QUOTE="blakjava, post: 1368436, member: 237563"] [b]Clam shell mode[/b] The heat dissipation quote doesn't make sense. When the Macbook is operating in clamshell mode the video circuits are driving the external monitor, thus generating even more heat with the lid closed. If heat is not a problem with an external monitor attached, then heat shouldn't be a problem with the lid closed and no monitor attached. There should be a way to keep the Macbook on with the lid closed to keep the wireless network operating built in to the Mac software. [/QUOTE]
