Hi all,

Could anyone with a 11" (macbook :D) run an experiment for me?

I've got a 3g macbook air just now, and if I run anything that is graphically intensive for longer than about 20 minutes kernel_task starts taking over the processor and it kills the performance. Apparently it's to prevent the macbook getting too hot - but it means I can only play world of warcraft for 20 minutes...

Could anyone give Warcraft (or something really processor/graphics intensive) a try for longer than 20 minutes or so? Does the 11" still have the same problem?

Cheers,
Barry
