Loading each core with cpuburn-in, the temp on core 0 gets up to 80°C (that's 176°F, for those still in the dark ages) after a minute or so.
That's pretty hot.
The system fan (the only fan in the box) goes from a very leisurely 1500rpm to an almost as leisurely 2000rpm during this time, and the temp on core 0 stabilises at pretty much exactly 80°C. Core 1 only ever gets up to 65°C (149°F), though. Removing the load causes the temps to drop very fast.
I've updated the kernel .config for 2.6.22(.1) in case anyone's interested.

I've aquired some more insults today too. From an American lawyer, no less. Amongst general animosity, I have been specifically called:
- ignorant (yet again)
- closed-minded
- dangerous walking about unsupervised by a nanny
- brain dead
- unreasonable
I was also compared to a savage at one point, and invited to 'have a lovely snide little existence'.
All because he'd bought one of these, and I said it was crap.
