My pbook used to tun at about 53 degrees Celsius running normal apps, (safari, itunes, AIM). But ever since i got a new set of logitech speakers it has started to run around 58-60 degrees! Is it possible for the pbook to run up to 5 degrees more just by plugging in speakers. Before I added the logitech's I was using the built in speaks in the pbook. Any tips/comments?

It is possible that the sound circuit heats up the computer when using the external jack. When it is not in use, the jack is not active, so it isn't drawing as much power.

Yeah Im starting to think it was coincidence, it seems to sort of fixed itself. And my ipod connector was plugged in the whole time too, I dont know if that affected it at all but after unplugging it the temp dropped.
