You guys must not be used to PC Laptops. This Macbook does get hot, but it's nothing compared to some Dells and Sonys. As for fans - again, nothing compared to the PCs.

I kind of figured they'd do this. But after looking at the 15.4 Sony Vaio's, compared to a 15.2 Powerbook, that extra width is very nice. I have a 17" Powerbook now, and I was ready to sacrifice the...

So, I ordered Jan 11, 9am, direct with an Apple rep. If...
