How do I cool down a frequently overheated MacBook Pro? I live in Rimini, Italy, and here temperature during summer (from mid-June till the end of August) is always above 33°C. Furthermore, my MBP has lots of tasks/apps running, and is almost always at the temp of 97°C - 98°C (average) with the two airflow fans spinning at maximum RPMs. This is a real issue, since it causes a slowdown of the whole system, not including a possible hardware damage. I'm thinking about Apple's offices in Cupertino: there, temps are much higher than here. How do they cool down their laptops? Seriously, I need a solution to keep temperatures lower. Are there any carbon dioxide (carbon anhydride) cooling systems for a 15'' MBP? My MBP is always placed in an office, but it wouldn't be a problem to put it on a refrigerating surface, provided that it wouldn't be too thick. Can you help me? [Re-Titled by Moderator]
