Hi
My MBP (1.86 first gen) was not exactly cool before I installed SL. But now it gets hot for nothing right after boot it is 50+C and just launching Safari gets it to the low 60s. Fans around 1800 at the start and 2500 with Safari.
Running a HD video on CBS gets it to mid 60s, 66-67 with fans at 4000 rpm.
Interestingly enough this would have been more like 70 degrees with fans at more than 4000 under leopard so under load it might actually be slightly better with SL but definitely not with no load.
I have reset the SMC, helped slightly ( initially after cold start it was 53-54) all the numbers above is with the charger attached and a fully charged battery.
For those of you with the same MBP (I have 2 gig RAM btw) have you experienced similar temperature increase with your machine after installing SL?
Anything you would suggest to get the temp down?
Many thanks!
