I've also bought one of these. The 65W claim is... stretching the truth.
It acts the same as a 45W psu, ie if you run out of juice you'll have to leave it charging for a couple of minutes before it'll restart. The charging current (from battery.sbar) also indicates it is more like 45W.
Can't understand why you'd consider buying a $$$$ psu from Apple directly, then go for the cheapest 3rd-party psu as the next alternative. A 2nd hand (or NOS) Apple psu via Ebay would serve you far better...
PS - If you're running dnetc client, that could explain the overheating (cpu running at 100% all the time), although not the failure to power down.
