Thanks for the heads up, Pierre. If I replaced my MBP (unlikely since
it is almost new), I probably would have gone for the high end one.
Now I'll be thinking twice.
BTW, have you tried lifting the MBP up from the table surface a
little? I put those little circular felt furniture pads (the ones
with self-adhesive built in) on the bottom of my MBPs to raise the
laptop up slightly more than the Apple-installed "feet" do and find
that really helps with heat dissipation. YMMV.

I owned lots of macs over the years, from a PWB 160 to the last MBP
core i7 15" and you know what : the best of all in them was always
the operating system 0S 7/8/9 and OSX. The bad thing in them was the
construction quality - one time good (as the best of alls : PWB G4
12" 1 Ghz), one time sadly bad (as the sadest of all : PWB 5300 cs,
three time rebuild to new by Apple).
How to position the MacBook Pro core 620-i7 15" i purchased in the
late of april ?
If you just need to run one of its four virtual cores at once, it's
OK but if you want to use it in running apps on its four virtual
core in 24/7 mode, don't expect that this unibody laptop will
support it for weeks. Instead of letting the processors fans turns
all the day at 6000 t/mn as soon as 3 virtual cores are at work, the
best to do is to switch to a more seriously build 720-i7 PC laptop
(height virtual cores) able to run at 100% of its available power
without becoming too hot even after months (i'm very happy with my
ASUS 14" i payed half the price of the MBP).
If i had to choose what MBP to purchase instead of the core i7 i
owns today, i would certainly take a dual-core instead. The unibody
is definitively not suited to embed the core i5/i7 processors...
Best,
