I do know that my P4M at idle generates a lot more heat than
my A64 at Idle. CPUID shows that the A64 gets throttled back
to 800 Mhz at idle whereas the P4M gets throttled back to
1100+ Mhz at idle. It appears that you can lower it even
further with CPUID though I'm not game enough to try that.

The fan does sometimes go into "airplane" mode during builds
but is a lot better with the Chili Mat. Perhaps Intel should
ship a Chili Mat with their P4 notebooks (which appear to be
selling better than Pentium M notebooks in the retail outlets).

At WalMart, I saw a Pentium 4 notebook but no Pentium Ms.
