Hi All

13" Alu Macbook....

Recently noticed that the bottom left side and top to some extent is getting quite hot
even though the machine is not really being pushed to any great extent.

This machine just turned on for 5 minutes sitting in idle doing nothing is running at 44c

If you start to use something that is very javascript heavy then it gets real hot and the screen will sort of
blink out and then it all locks up.

Could this be the logic board on its wayout do you think ?
