Heat and the new MacBooks

I've not heard any mention yet of how the new unibody handles heat...does anyone know if it disperses heat better or does the whole thing turn into a hot potato?

    I have a new Al Macbook and there is no heat when browsing, doing email or word processing. I played Spore for about 1/2 hour and the bottom was warm, but that was it. Not hot, just warm.

    I have the 2.0GHz Al MacBook, and when I boot in to windows and play games it gets fairly hot. It actually froze once, but I had it on my lap at the time so I'm pretty sure it's due to that. I had to exchange my first Al MacBook the day after I got it because the fan was faulty.

    It still gets hot, but not as hot as past generations of MBPs.



    I also think the fans are much quieter.
