No it's the chips, these machines didn't exactly have the most user friendly heat dissipation design, on both models the CPU heat conducted straight through to the top case. maybe not cook an egg very fast but uncomfortable to touch for more than a second... maybe 1 EPH (one egg per hour) :)

The early Intel MacBooks weren't much better - my black 2007 2,1 model gets pretty hot and has a serious lack of ventilation holes.
