powerbook and external display

[sandmann41]

Are there any problems with heat while using a power book with a external display and having it closed?

Although I haven't tried that yet with my PowerBook, they are designed to run in lid-closed mode, so it should be fine. Otherwise, you could take it back to Apple if something did go wrong. I'm assuming you have a last generation TiBook or AlBook.

after it has booted up with the external display i always open up the display lid a bit to let air in. Im using a 1.33 Ghz 12" w/ 768 Ram

Do you use a stand?
