mac users[views:1427][posts:14]____________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 5:57pm - xanonymousx ""] does anyone know how to make it so the macbook isn't so hot? my computer shuts off randomly because of the heat. and i have the firmware patch |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 6:03pm - xanonymousx ""] are there any programs that can help me control the fan speed of the macbook? |
