The reason was that the system idling was taking up so much CPU cycles that it constantly had the fans whirring on the MBP. Mail and Safari both would routinely consume 100% of the CPU resources, making the fans go beserk. The same behavior didn't occur on the iMac.
Once they get the quirks worked out (it is BETA, and they do have 3 months after all) it is going to be a great release. You can moan and groan about not liking this or that, but the entire OS feels more polished, all of the apps have some really great additions, and once you use it, you will hate going back to Tiger. | Is iChat as nifty as it looks?
