Just how hot does everyone's 12" Powerbook get... I'm trying to figure out if mine is abnormal-- I'm choosing "hurts to touch sometimes"

There isn't an option for me.

My powerbook is BETWEEN reasonably warm and too hot to touch. It gets hot, but never too hot to touch.

i agree with adamflybot...

mine gets definitly hotter than i'd like it to get. but not too hot to use, although when i have the settings on highest performance it is pretty close to being too hot. when i use it scaled back it is definitly not as bad.
