When is a lap not a lap?

by taoski on June 26, 2006

It appears, according to AppleDefects.com, that Apple have changed their advertisement wordings to remove the term “lap”.  This seems to be a move to discourage people from using laptops on their.. er.. lap..tops after serious heat build up issues were discovered.  The new MacBook Pro was clocked at a smouldering 142 degrees farenheit!

After:

My (work owned) IBM Thinkpad T23 does get quite hot if I use it on my lap at home - but not hot enough to burn my legs!

Scary stuff! But at least it will keep me warm when I am surfing AmpLand naked!
