It works well, except for this: After a cuple of hours up and running it gets really hot. My fingers almost gets burned when I touch the harddirve, memory etc! According to `sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature` the cpu-temperature is usually about 50-60 degrees C. Which I consider i normal, but is it normal for the rest of the devices to be so hot? Is there someone else who has the same problem which I do with a simular computer? -Tobias
