MacBook Pro 15" Retina Palmrest Heating Up While Charging

Hello,


I noticed that my MacBook Pro with retina display 15" @ 2.5Ghz 16GB Ram is heating up near the palm rest when it was sleeping and charging on the carpet.


I just wanted to know if someone with the same notebook knows that this is okay.


Thanks!


Matt

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
