revisited.

i decided to wait for revB of the 12", and it's here.

still crippled, but better. now i'm just waiting for the apple store to get them in, so i can see if they get as hot as revA's...


anyone? any guesses, theories (or factual info) about this? hard to imagine that this hasn't been at least somewhat dealt with.

or will this one get hotter??

Well, the new processor uses less power, so there's hope. But there's also the hard drive, graphics card, blah blah blah, so who knows....

I don't think it'll be any hotter than it is now, however I doubt it'll be much cooler considering the casing is the same and the processor is clocked higher. But I don't think it's that big of a deal...if you're wearing pants, you'll be fine.

I don't think they're crippled at all.
