[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 370014, member: 24098"] Keep in mind that the bottom surface of the MBP is meant to be set on a smooth, flat surface to allow air to circulate around the case and dissipate the heat. So, if you routinely game on your lap or with the notebook sitting on a couch, the computer can't cool itself as efficiently. This isn't a problem specific to Macs either, which is why most manufacturers now refer to "laptops" as "notebooks". You'll find the same problem with an Alienware notebook - especially if it has fans mounted on the bottom. [/QUOTE]
