How hot?
All the time, or just when you're making it work hard?
Ambient room temperature range? Good ventilation around the iMac?
They do run warm, but not anywhere near what I'd call hot.

Is the new iMac supposed to run so hot? And where do they put the fans
in there anyway? They're sure quite though.
The aluminum iMac has three fans. There are several

are always dust coated so get blown out monthly. Is there any chance
the hot iMac either came from a dusty environment or is inhaling dust
at your location, and perhaps that's what is causing the heat
problem

And THAT is why Apple could never make a G5 laptop. The Intel Macs run
much cooler than the G5 Macs.

You know you have cats when one of the fluffy monsters chews through the

Hi
I have 8 cats at the moment and if I leave my laptop sitting open, one of
them will be sitting on the keyboard area when I get back.
Then it is a case of removing them without them digging their claws in and
ripping a few keys off in the process.

To find the fans, look for venting slots and feel for a breeze
