Mobile P4 suffering from heat exhaustion !

Check this artical out titled <A HREF="http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-8157066.html?tag=tp_pr" target="_new">Pentium 4: Too hot to handle ?</A>

Looks like the moblie P4 is a hungry little monster. A laptop will have to have two fans installed just to keep the beast cool. Here is a little extract of the artical:

<font color=blue>"As a result, notebook makers will need to take extra precautions to fit the Pentium 4 into existing lines. Models that don't have a second fan for heat removal, for example, will likely have to add one. Larger, heavier batteries will also be part of the mix.

Some industry watchers have jokingly referred to the mobile Pentium 4 as the George Foreman Lean, Mean Grilling Machine.

'This baby cooks', said Kevin Krewell, senior analyst with MDR-Instat, publisher of the Microprocessor Report. Krewell estimates the chip will consume about 30 watts of power when pushed to its limits."
