It also appears to have an issue with the optical drive. It has been operating solely on adapter power for several years now and has been fine, up until now. It has burned several areas of the white casing (they look kind of dark grey-violet), and I believe that it may have also burned my batteries, as I went through 4 batteries - all of which the computer stopped recognizing for no reason at all - just while my computer was under warranty.
However, I have seen it go as high as 85 (this is very rare, however, and the fan catches up and cools it back down). Under normal circumstances, my computer remains from 55 to 65 degrees Celsius, usually around 60-62. I have found that using a cooling pad does NOT help.
These include a problem that seems to be normal for Macbooks created around this time - overheating. My macbook was purchased in the winter of 2006 and has multiple other problems as well, but I think they are unrelated. Moving it at a moderate speed without rotating it too much seems to be okay, though, as long as I don't move it too quickly. However, I have also noticed that if I move it a certain way -I'm not sure if it has to do with rotation while I'm picking it up, or how quickly I have picked it up, however I am sure that this almost always happens if I have laid it on my chest and I am laying down, and I decide to move to sit up more - it will often shut off. It turned out that it turned on and worked just fine on a different adapter, so I replaced the adapter. After a while I could not even get it to turn on. I had a problem with my Macbook shutting off completely at random a while back.
