My baby has arrived earlier today!! I picked up and right now I am playing with it!
It's cool, I am so excited! :D

I am trying to adjust with Mac. It's my first Mac ever!!
It's hot, literally! Is 52 Celsius HOT?
I prayed last night to get a healthy intact MBP and my prayers have been answered!:)

So time for some unboxing pics!! I know sounds silly but I couldn't resist!

BUT! I couldn't upload the photos! bc I didn't find em!
Any help would be appreciated, I know the photos are in library/iphotos :eek:

BTW! My baby is the baseline model with 200 GB 7200rpm and glossy! :cool:

Edit: Unboxing photos down there :D
 
Hi,

Welcome to Mac. The temp is normal. These guys run hot due to the thin size and the aluminum case. That is how they dissipate the heat. A MBP is not a laptop computer officially. They call it a notebook as it can get uncomfortable when on the lap for extended periods of time.

Enjoy!
 
So the temp is normal! Thank God!
Markrivers, :p

Here are the unboxing photos: :D


P.S. Photos by iPhone.

Welcome to the Mac World...
And as someone else said the MBP tend to run hot due to the design. I hope you enjoy your MBP as much as I enjoy mine.
 
Yeah.

25 is great! I'm running at about 46 right now. I do have quite a few processes open. Fans have been running at 1996-2000 rpm pretty much all day.
