Hi Bruce,
maybe my description wasn't straightforward enough.
The heatsink isn't removed.
(You didn't know, but I've some experience with "hacking" macs:
I took apart the Pismos several times and I appreciate the purpose of
those parts.)
And its true: I only touch the heatsink and plate and not the CPU
directly.
Again (sorry) the question: whose Pismo becomes ("felt") after some
usage?
At least at the bottom case near the backside (where the CPU is
located)?

> normal persepctive) is off to the left of the cpu near the edge of the
> case.
