Hiya!

Do I use CoreDuoTemp or are there any other good programs for measuring temperature on my new C2D MBP?
 
Hey, it's cooler than a G5! I'm running iTunes and safari I've got 45*C
// whoops 🙁 I was thinking iMac! sorry
 
60C right now..running safari, adium, iphoto. Hmm is that normal?
I don't know about MBP's SMC control but at 60C, that would scare the crap out of my MB and make the fans jump from 1500RPM (default) to around 3000RPM more or less.
 
60 is fine I get at the high 50s if i'm doing stuff. at idle i'm high 40s.

my friend's CD MBP idled at 60...until i introduced him to the glorious smcfancontrol.

and The macbook isnt made out of aluminum 😉 .
