I have my macbook back.
It has a new harddrive, but the heat is still there.. The support tech insisted that the heat was being caused by the faulty hard drive. by that time I just wanted my computer back so I could actually do some work on it. Hopefully I can figure out how to fix the the thermal glue myself without breaking the box.
I've decided to start from scratch, and reinstall stuff as required. (I had 3 years of crap on my old box)
I am also doing like "Leo":http://www.leosimons.com/2006/burning-in-the-macbook.html is, and running parallels (as a I need a FreeBSD host to do some testing).
