I have a MacBook Pro C2D 2.2 Ghz, what is the normal temperature that it should run at? mine usually runs between 40-50C. And 2000 rpm. (All this according to iStat Nano.

Is this normal? especially because my logicboard has died TWICE and I can't find a reason why it has happened.

Yes, that'sabout normal unless doing some intensive work on it. There's a reason why they're not called laptops any more.

Those temperatures are absolutely normal. And they for sure won't fry your MLB. You just got a lemon.

Mine runs between 55-80+ degrees, so yep, yours seems normal, maybe even on the low side.
