Bottom of macbook warm or extremely hot what is the normal feel of it....
Know this discussion has been done to death but this is a variation on it. To what level of heat does the bottom of the macbook get to? Warm or does it get extremely hot causing one to have the reaction to pull the hand away when just trying to move the notebook. Not even talking about using on my lap but just the act of moving the notebook around. The hand contacts an area and the first reaction is to pull the hand away due to it being extremely hot. Is this normal under usual average load? Have yet to have it under heavy cpu load. Fully understand that there is going to be warm but just need to know if the norm is warm or is it hot to the touch as described above.
Again I fully understand that it will be warm but just need to hear from others and their experience so far with their macbooks.
From reading other users responses to the heat topic it is somewhat vague as to what the term warm means. Users have posted that it is just warm but not uncomfortable but others have stated that it is hot and uncomfortable. Just want to know if my notebook is within norm or not. Must also add that the cpu at idle is in the 140F range.
