One word, two meanings. It's HOT! and Ah crap, it is HOT!
Being my first experience with Mac, I am very pleased with it. I'm still coming up to speed with OSX and haven't had much time to play with it yet. The crowning moment came when I hooked it up to the 30" cinema. What a beautiful thing to have 6 full size browser windows visible on your desktop.
I am a little disappointed in the amount of heat it generates though. I made the mistake of setting it on my lap after running for a few hours, and even though I had shorts on, it still got my attention rather quick. The little area just above the F keys gets a bit toasty as well. Since the majority of the heat comes from the battery, I am a little concerned that there may be other issues than just "Apple laptops have always run hot". But who knows? For now, I'm just wanting to finish up my current projects so I can have some time to play with it more.
