>From what I have read online, no. The NuPower 400 and the Interware 400 both run >relatively cool since they are both copper. I have only direct experience with the Interware 400. That, after a software install extravaganza of 10 different apps while downloading viral updates was warm on the bottom (I have removed the feet and had it laying flat on a wooden surface), but no more than normal body heat. I haven't done any scientific studies of the heat generated by the CPU, but other laptops that I have owned have gotten far hotter. The 5400rpm HD wasn't cooling anything down, either ~_^ Does Jeremy's strips list CPU temp on a 2400c? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun. Try the all-new Yahoo!
