There has been tons of threads about mbp's temp on near 0 to full load, but what to get a more accurate reading. What is everyone's temp during REGULAR use of their notebooks? And by regular use, i mean mediocre use of instant messaging, email, blogging, web surfing, iTunes.

My temp range is 70-72* (mostly at 70*) when load is at 20-30%. Is that normal? Seems pretty warm for a machine running at that low of a load given my max temp stablizes at 80-82* on full load.

what about just collecting the idle and load temperatures in database and see if there's any trends.

check out http://www.intelmactemp.com and submit your values according to the conditions.

Because it is neither load nor idling. I have the same issue, 70+ degrees at very low load.
