Cooking Breakfast On A Macbook

I could never figure out why apple didn’t make macbooks cooler, or seem to try to fix the problem. Then I figured it out apple doesn’t want there users to starve because they want them to buy more laptops later in life, so they made the laptops super hot so you can cook on them. So I made this guide on cooking breakfast on a macbook.

1. Get a macbook and turn it over so the screens over the edge of your desk/counter (shown in picture)
2. Run your favorite process intensive program to get it to heat up
3 Some tinfoil on uper left part of the laptops underside (the hottest part of the macbook
4. Put your cup of coffee on the power supply to keep it warm
5. Cook your egg on the tinfoil, it will take longer than normal
6. Enjoy your breakfast

Now you know the secret of the overheating notebook.

What the Hell!!! Does it really get that HOT?

I don't know about the heat temps of the Macbooks, but I know the MacBook Pros have had their MagSafe power connectors melt on them, so, yeah - I'd say they probably get hot. Hot enough to fry an egg?...I dunno about that.

I think Apple underestimated the heat potential of these new systems; they left PPC because they couldn't supply a higher clock cpu, but I think they forgot to put some extra "oomph" into their thermal protection when Intel delivered those higher clock processors. I'm really surprised some of these problems passed QC but then again, these are new systems and they're still "stretching their legs" so to speak. I'm sure the next batch of models won't have these issues.

Way to void your warranty and document doing so.

By the way, if you look at the site, just after the quote, the poster clearly states it's a joke. ;-)

my friend just got a macbook and she mentioned that it got pretty dang hot.

my powerbook gets pretty warm, but i can most definitely rest it on my lap without a problem.
