When I'm working in a virtual machine
My laptop heats up between 60 and 75 degrees.
Is this normal?
And is it possible to have this temperature for a long time?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4
It's not abnormal.
And is it possible to have this temperature for a long time?
Yes. If your Mac approaches its thermal limits it will shut down on its own.
Please be sure to review Keep your Mac laptop within acceptable operating temperatures - Apple Support. Don't use case covers or "skins" and never cover the keyboard with anything other than your fingertips.
