[QUOTE="a4 abt, post: 584927, member: 44699"] I can't comment on how well the MBP will perform for your applications compared to the AMD, but the MBP does run hot. Mine runs @ 48-50C when idling (web surfing, iTunes, emails...) and it can go up to ~70-75C when doing heavy video editing. I also convert videos for my apple tv and the temperature runs around 65-68C. As you can see, the MBP runs hotter than another PC, but keep in mind that the MBP uses a passive cooling (there are no vents/fans under the MBP). At first, I was concerned with temperature and heat, but you quickly realize that's the way it's supposed to run. I haven't notice a "whizzy sound" under the keyboard!?!? [/QUOTE]
