My laptop is perfectly cool. However, I keep mine ontop of a antec computer fan and it works fine. Also I am brand new to the mac way of life. I have had other issues but not with heating. primarily I've had wireless issues with reception. My hard drive has 15 gigs of space that I can not account for and have no idea where they went.</p> I’ve had my macbook pro for about 1 week and a half and I haven’t had any heating problems.

I ordered last week. Same specs as netjunkie above :) Good that Apple is doing something about it. Sucks that you had to experience such an issue.</p> I hope mine doesn’t do this.

Your fans are not working. Mine gets real hot right near the screen where it should, but not on the keyboard and definately not at the front.
