I have a Macbook Pro 15" mid-2010 that's always been pretty warm. I just upgraded to an SSD, more RAM, and a new battery, and it got even hotter than ever within minutes. Is this normal?
 
Solution
Swapping the battery is the likely culprit. The new battery needs charged and it will heat up while charging. See how it performs after a full charge.

BTW, those do run warm. No doubt about it.
