any MB users using notebook coolers ?
was thinking of the zalman nc1000 but not too sure..
cause the coolermaster notepal p1 looks really interesting also

and i notice alot of heat from the MB comes from the area around the F2 to F4 keys region where the CPU and graphics chip are located.

Plenty of people have done it. No worries there. All flavors of Windows Vista should work with Boot Camp, but I do recall some hubbub about Vista Home.

i use vista on my MBP.. only tried XP on regular macbook. both work without a hitch as long as you use the latest version of bootcamp *as i found out when trying to update drivers*

Hmmm..i'm wondering whether want to upgrade the ram to 2gbz to run the windos vista?
by the way, will there be any lag playing games such as warcraft or starcraft?

IMHO 1GB RAM for Vista in MacBook is like XP running on 512MB RAM, smooth but not really smooth biggrin.gif
For the games, I think warcraft and starcraft at low resolution would be no problem..

i am now, very very unsatisfied with my macbook...
tomorrow going back to macstudio..
see what they can do...
best thing, replace with new unit..

the keyboard plate on my right side, squeeks.. most likely because its warped from being overtighten..

the front panel, along the infrared, doesn't match the top part when its closed... there are 2 bumps along the case...

that day itself they brought out a second unit, it was worse than mine.. i thought i could live with it.. but obviously i can't
