hmm.. then it might just be powerbooks. and yes your right. the iBooks and PowerBooks have very poor cooling. the one that im writing to you on which is my powerbook overheats very badly and i think my motherboard is being fried. if you think that it is totally cooling probs then download G4fancontrol. this allows you to manually control the fans in your iBook/PowerBook.
Hope this helps:) -Alex 2009/7/9 Kris Tilford <[email protected]> > > On Jul 9, 2009, at 4:54 PM, Sasuke Uchiha wrote: > > > ONE LAST THING!!
