Don't put an Apple laptop on your lap

The new Apple PowerBook operating manuals are warning folks not to put these laptops on your lap - you could get burned from the generated heat. It is recommended that you place them on a desk or other non-flammable surface.

Do you know the one -- "All I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer
her by ..." You could feel the wind at your back, about you ... the
sounds of the sea beneath you. And even if you take away the wind and
the water, it's still the same. The ship is yours ... you can feel her
... and the stars are still there.
