> While Apple's not blameless in the matter, this seems to be more of an Intel issue no?

I mean, Apple sourced the chip and shipped the laptop, and you pay Apple. I don't see how you _can't_ blame Apple engineering for this?

Which is why I said "not blameless"

Thermal properties of the chip and any issues arising from those are pieces that the engineers should have sussed out in the beginning though. If I don't put a heatsink and fan on my desktop CPU, then is that Intel's fault? Of course not.

Hopefully the firmware can take care of the issue for those impacted.
