Hi Guys,
I've been reading about this a lot, but I couldn't find anything really giving good answers. I've been using my MacBook air to watch netflix on occasion, which of course requires Microsoft Silverlight. I've also noticed my CPU temp. getting up into the 90's centegrade, which is pretty hot IMO, and warm enough that it's uncomfortable to use on your lap. Cpu usage is also 80-90% used by silverlight.
My biggest question is will this do any damage in the long-run to my MacBook? Is there anything I can do to help this issue?
I guess I just don't understand why my iPad can run Netflix with little trouble, but my MacBook can't. I assume the video is of a higher quality on the computer, it just doesn't seem like it should be that extreme.
Any help is appreciated!
