[QUOTE="kaidomac, post: 420207, member: 15110"] Santa Rosa is more of a nickname for the platform (including the processor) than anything. The official title is "Centrino Pro" but on forums people usually refer to the chips by their codenames (Yonah, Merom, Santa Rosa, Penryn, etc.) rather than their actual names. The current chip is referred to as a "Santa Rosa processor": [url]http://blogs.zdnet.com/Apple/?p=578[/url] [url]http://www.trustedreviews.com/notebooks/review/2007/04/17/Intel-Santa-Rosa-Revealed/p2[/url] [url]http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/20/intels-santa-rosa-platform-officially-dubbed-centrino-pro/[/url] [url]http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/notag/what-you-need-to-know-about-intels-new-santa-rosa-platform-258885.php%3Cbr%20/%3E[/url] Also you said "my mbp has always been cooler than my MB, so i dont consider it hot in the first place." Which model 13" do you have? The previous CD and C2D 15" MBPs that I used were much hotter than the 13", it sounds like you really lucked out with a cooler-running 15" model.
