Hey everyone. On day three of playing with the new 12" PB with SD. Other than bad ram, the only thing i can complain about is the heat.

Quick question....how long after you reach 100% battery harge does your power adaptor LED go from amber to green? Mine takes a while and sometimes never gets there. Called apple and they said to show it to a compusa guy. Wanted to her what everyone else had to say. Do I have a bad PMU or adaptor?

I doubt you have a bad anything honestly. Rechargable batteries are programmed not to fully charge themselves to prevent shortening their lifespan, so the computer may accidentally never turn green b/c it sense that the battery isn't absolutely 100% full, which of course in reality it isn't. I certainly would not worry about it, it's just like having your battery charging for days and it only showing 95-99% charged; never to fear, it's fully charged, but these batteries are made not to charge to their absolute max.

by the way...the apple guy responded to me saying that this thing ran really hot by saying "well, they are not meant to be used on your lap."

huh?
