Re: Powerbook overheating badly

[larry Zasitko]

I don't think it should be getting that hot! Maybe the fans are not  
working. Mine definitely gets warm and I have seen temps at 58 or 59c  
but not higher than that. In sleep mode it should stay cold as nothing  
will be running. Time to get Apple to look at it....

Hi,
Just wondering if anybody has had this problem with their PB.   I have  
a 6 month old 15" AL PB.   Recently, I came  home and found that the  
PB was extremely hot to the touch.  It had been in sleep mode.
When  I lifted it up, it had actually left two  burn/char marks in the  
table as well as a white mark where the finish of the table was  
damaged.
