    Hi there. Noticed these new SR MBP's run on the hot side---anyone know of any good cooling pads that will complement my beautiful new machine? I prefer fanless, but I s'pose it doesn't matter.

    Thanks!

    I really like those coolfeet, aaron.

    I have a 17" MBP though... will support on those 4 corners put undue strain on the center of the notebook? I wouldn't worry if I just had a MB, but this 17" is pretty heavy.

    I use and like my iLap. Which matches the MacBook Pro perfectly, with it's aluminum finish. It lifts the rear of the MacBook Pro by a couple of inches too. But unlike some other products, you can still use the built-in keyboard.

    The iLap I have, I brought for my old 17" PowerBook, and it fits my 17" MBP perfectly. My PB ran a lot hotter than my MBP (I have the 2.33 GHZ MBP), the MBP is a very cool laptop. The latest generation may run a little hotter though?
