just so you know, the Core 2's idle at around 50-60. I have a Core Duo and it idle's at 45ish. I guess intel decided that instead of trying to reduce their temperatures they would just make cpus that handle the high heat better. I know that the Core Duo has a high end of 100C which is unbelievably hot. I can only assume that the Core 2 is higher.
Older AMD's like the Duron and early Athlon ran really hot and had a low heat resistance. The new X64's and X2's run pretty cool and have a high heat resistance. My X64 3400+ idles at 34C.
I'd say if you're worried about heat stick with AMD, theyre made huge improvements in heat and power consumption. Intels get really hot but they can handle the high temps. My Core Duo laptop screams but burns my lap. The Core Duo and Core 2 are still amazing processors though.
