Sick Mac
My laptop keeps overheating and puffing out air. When I searched online to see what might be causing this, I read that one should think of it like a person that is overworking and sweating. It made me feel bad, as though I was pushing it into overdrive, though I'm not doing anything that should make this happen. I am wondering if it is mirroring something. I do not want a laptop with M.E. or chronic fatigue. I want it to carry on being Mac Airy and yes-can-do, not a sick thing that keeps having to put its lid down to take a nap, and even then it keeps puffing and sweating. it has a temperature. I can feel it's hot underside.

Do you have him/her on your lap or atop the bed or otherwise on a soft, cushiony surface? For I find my McAiry gets hot and bothered more easily those times. If you want to (or if the ME Bastard necessitates) blog/compute/McAir from bed, maybe you could try a big tray or similar underneath. There's something about being on a soft surface that messes up the poor creatures (otherwise impeccable) self-cooling system.
An all serious comment! Well whaddaya know.
Hope this helps.

Yes I've noticed that. But it has been getting hot and bothered even when on a hard surface. Have closed down a few things that might have been using unnecessary energy - and Mr. S has downloaded something or other. McAiry seems more serene now and is resting atop a copy of the Rialto
We sound nicely sensible and measured, don't you think. Not at all the kind of people who would end every comment with a certain 'b' word.
No, you know, given we're grown-ups and intellectuals at that, swearing for the fun of it is a load of unnecessary, crude bollocks.
wishing mac better soon - Rialto eh? who knew

We bought one of these. Made a huge difference. Luckily the Co-Op were selling them off at £10. Sure you must be able to get them cheaper than Amazon x
Anna, absolutely - though it is a well-known fact that talented artisticos (Mozart) sometimes use language that is just plain scatological and filthy. But to my knowledge he never said bollocks.
F B, I know - but I haven't yet persuaded them to take one of my poems!
Cusp, this looks cool in every sense. Thanks. Finger on the Amazon button.
Well, I believe good old Wolfgang A said "totaler Quatsch" –auf Deutsch, ja? – instead of "bollocks".
Signs - nor I - though I only tried once...
