[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1327116, member: 46727"] I'll start by telling you that my new iMac runs very cool. But then, the iMac by virtue of its design is easily cooled by convection. My older MacBook (2008 Core 2 Duo) runs much warmer, but that's the nature of notebook machines. I noticed you stated that you like to lay in bed watching movies. Keeping the machine on top of bed covers or your lap does not allow it to cool properly. And it does sound like your MBP is running warmer than it should. Returning it is up to you of course, but replace it with an iMac? [/QUOTE]
