[BlueSkyJaunte]

Sorry for the lame physics reference.

Those of you who've been following my Apple purchase saga know I've gotten a shiny (well, satin-finish, anyway) 15" PowerBook.

Specs: 1GHz, 60 GB, 784 MB, ComboDrive.

Still running Jaguar (at nostatic's recommendation). I've downloaded all the updates.

What's the deal here? When the case starts to get "warm to the touch", iTunes crashes when I try to "Import" from a CD to MP3! (160 kb/s, VBR). AKA rip to MP3. If I unsleep after letting the machine cool down and try to rip the CD, it works with no problems! If it starts to get warm, however, iTunes will sometimes hang and sometimes just puke (shut down unexpectedly etc.).

Anyone else have this problem? I've turned off playback during rip as this seems to make the problem worse (duh, higher CPU load).
