Hi all, I hope everyone is doing well. My apologies for my absence as my Macbook has been sent for repair to Apple. It is now back, and I have a question. I don't know if any of you have ever experienced the heat factor. My MB was overheating and losing a charge, this is why it has was sent back to Apple. The tech person at Apple told me not to have the Macbook on anything soft like my lap as it would cause overheating and may have been the source of the problem all along. In doing research, I came across a post about chill mats. These are mats that are designed to go under your Mac with a USB cord and a fan. The one I just purchased contains a USB cord and a fan, the premise is you plug the USB cord in and when the fan senses the Mac getting hot it turns on and cools it down. It is supposed to keep your lap and the Mac cool. With the edition of this mat, you can have the Macbook on your lap again and not be relegated to a desk to table. Which I really don't understand why you must place them on a hard surface, if the whole premise of the Macbook is to be portable. Well, just my two cents. Has anyone ever heard of the overheating issue, or the chill mats? Thank you for reading this, sorry if it is a bit off topic. My apologies to the moderators if it is.
