Hey all, just signed up to the forums. Just have a few questions that i hope someone can answer.
1. My power block gets pretty hot. I know thats pretty normal but for a macbook pro how hot should it actually get?
2. My computer also gets pretty hot. I have it on a lap type platform, so its not directly on my lap or bed. It gets hot underneath and above the escape key on top.
3. I often get an error where it stops charging. The screen gets dark and bright over and over. Where it shows your battery life, it shows a message saying (Not Charging). I wasn't sure if this was due to a bad connection from the power cord to the computer(Where it snaps on). Or if it was the power block getting hot or the computer itself.

Thanks in advance.
