MacBook Pro Might Overheat in Carrying Case! Be Careful!

I'm a designer at www.site-hive.com and I made the mistake of putting my macbook pro in a carrying case while it was in sleep mode, and the little bugger overheated and fried itself. Cost to replace a ruined logicboard? $1300! Just want people to benefit from my ignorance, DON'T PUT A SLEEPING MACBOOK PRO IN A CASE!!

Did you have extended Apple Care?

@Mira0Mirror sadly, no.

uh...this is so not right...useless video or maybe my mac is just too good

[rykelo8]

@MrTondeath I'm mostly just warning against the 1 in 1000 chance that it happens - usually as your system gets older and startup/sleep/shutdown glitches from time to time. Just make dead sure that thing actually IS asleep, that's all I'm saying. Obviously it won't happen every time, lol, or everyone would be losing their minds.

@rykelo8 lol how can the startup/sleep/shutdown glitch

[rykelo8]

@adilgangsta1 how can a car have trouble starting? lots of reasons, none of which I'm an expert at identifying.

Rubbish. If it's asleep it's fine.
