I've had a 5300ce get so hot this summer that it melted the rubber footie. I lifted it off the desk and saw this black mark on the surface. I was like, "what the?..." and then I realized it had melted.

I checked the temp on a digital thermometer. It was 90 degrees F.

In my room. Ambient air.

Which means that the Power Book was probably over 100.

I powered down and put the whole computer in the freezer to cool it off. Then I put it away for the day and scrubbed the rubber off of the desk. :lol:
