I have mine horizontal. It made indeed a lot of noise with the disc loading, when the PS3 was standing vertically. The ventilation openings have more than 6 inches of space for cooling, so I don't see any problem there.

And blue means the coolest spot, red the hottest. Shees where is this thread going to... hot... cool, horizontal position, vertical position... Anyway, Kber81 is right, you only have to feel your PS3 to find it out yourself. The parts that show green / yellow / red are the ones which show the most warmth. I've noticed this with my PS3, and thats the bottom and the left side when standing up, once you're standing in front of the PS3.
