I'm only responding to this one post, and not all in the thread. After a 
few minutes I had no more warning and things seem fine. But, for interest 
sake I'd thought I'd put this out:

Over the past fifteen minutes, the CPU has been lightly loaded.
15 minute CPU load average is 2.35
The processor is currently 59 degrees Celsius.
The system has been running for 1 day, 17 hours, and 47 minutes.

This is showing 2.35 - yet it is GREEN and lightly loaded, that doesn't 
make sense if that is trying to tell me that it is getting 2.35xCPUcapacity 
requests. My real concern is that it is now green, I am *curious* as to 
what these #'s really say, why 2.35 is green and 5 is red, especially since 
there is opinion that it should be < 1

Thanks!!
