    I recently updated my MBP with the newest patch and im getting higher cpu temps by just doing my usual web surfing and itunes. I see the cpu raise and my fans will kick on well above 2000 rpm. Before this my computer would normally be stable around 1999-2000 rpm. I can clearly tell by just typing that my mbp is runing hotter. Any suggestions as to the increase in temps or anyone else experience this problem.

    My system is running cooler actually. CPU is 43 as I type this and was 50 earlier while the fans are still at 2000rpm.
