I have finally been converted...after M$ put out their latest crappy OS, I had to jump ship...and I have asked myself..."what was I waiting for?"...

Anyway, I got a MBP with a Samsung screen...and not a single bit of yellowing...complete and total perfection!

Make sure to wear oven mittens when using it. I like to fry shrimp on mine.
 
I have read many people complaining (quite rightfully so) of heat...Mine doesn't seem to get so hot...

My mbp never feels hot to the touch, warm yes, hot no not even with the gpu @70°c, so their mbp's must either be faulty or they are cry babies who pay too much attention to the quality of their sperm ;)

No seriously, the mbp doesn't get that hot, especially not on battery, gets hotter while using the powerbrick but nothing extraordinary.

Do you play World of Warcraft? I can pretty much guarantee that WoW on good/best settings and at full res will turn almost any MBP into a frying pan. It doesn't make the machine unusable, and it's made of aluminium so it's expected, but it's bloody hot.

Congrats to the OP on the new machine. Under normal usage they stay cool just fine.
 
COD2 gets the hotdog cooking.

Computer was up to 87 C today according to SMC fan (about 189 F).

I was running handbrake and opening parallels.
