Hi guys i just bought a MacBook Pro, i love it however i'm a bit worried about the temperatures, it usually runs at 60 degrees celsius when i start to load the computer a bit with 4 tabs browsing and a 3D App it gets to 70-85 degrees? is that normal or is it a lot? i just want to keep my new mac Healthy :)

Also, the RPM at 80 degs is around 3000 - 4000rpm
 
Mine gets so hot, too. Apparently, these processors are supposed to heat up. I don't know, here is mine when I have a few Safari windows open. It's an absolute disgrace. This computer is a junk, that's what you get for £950 or whatever this crap cost.

I can't believe you say that, however i made some research and found out that thermometers actually show an extra 30 degrees... can anyone confirm that?
