Does The 13" MBP Run At A Higher Temp Than The 15" Bad Boy?

I'm guessing it does more frequently because it only has 1 internal fan. Does anyone have any stats to validate this?

Unfortunately I haven't had a good session with the 13-incher, but I'm pretty sure my 15" runs hotter than my friend's equivalent 17".

It would make sense for the smaller machine to be hotter, due to there being less ventilation and a smaller area for heat dissipation.

Does the 13" really only have one fan? I guess that almost half the casing is taken up by the SuperDrive, so it wouldn't be a surprise.

Nope. It runs much cooler than any 15" bad boy ever has.:rolleyes:

You have stats for that or is it just personal experience?
