“During our review of the new 17in Macbook Pro we noticed that the chassis became very hot. Further testing shows that the Core i7 CPU is hitting temperatures over 100 Degrees Celsius”

Well, if they’re running over 100 degrees Celsius with what they were doing on Windows and Mac users can run the CPU at 100% for three hours and never have a problem and have it at 80 degrees Celsius (which is what they say it will be at) — then I would say that MacBook users should not run Windows on their machines (directly) because Windows has problems there.

I would advise those using Windows to run it within in Mac OS X, virtually instead, and let Mac OS X manage the temperature, as that software seems to have no problems managing the temperature a lot better than Windows does ...

Obviously there is some problem with Windows..., I would say...
