By way of background, I am coming from a white MB, which was a plastic housing. I've decided that the worst feature of the new MBP isn't ANY of what folks here on these forums are complaining about at all. The single worst feature is the metal chassis being ICE COLD on my naked legs when I sit on the Hopper with this little gem.. ;):):):apple:

I think I let out a little scream each time it happens. This is all Apples fault.

Good lord, I thought I was alone!

If you're looking for a fix, maybe try running a game for five minutes (try Tomb Raider) to pre-heat the machine? That's what I do, gets it nice and toasty like jeans straight out of the dryer.

No one is complaining about it because Apple have been making metal laptops one way or another for about 15 years :p

SMH and TMI. But I have experienced this with shorts on with a fresh boot up. I probably don't experience the chill as much as you guys that inexplicably like to take this beauty into the s**tter.
