I don't want to sound too anal or persnickety, but hey! I'm anal. :p Anyways, it seems like my MBP is vibrating harder more than it used to. I suppose it's not a "vibration" but you can "feel" the hard drive or processor humming long. I just want to know how much you guys can feel.

**If you put your hand flat on your keyboard, do you feel any vibrations coming from the internal parts?**

Hmm, I see two people have voted "not at all"... Perhaps tomorrow I will give Apple a call and see what they think... It's got me worried that something internal is not working properly. =\

None at all, but I only have it for 6 days.

I've never had anything like that. I've had mine since September.

You don't feel a single thing when you lay your hand flat on your keyboard? What if you lay your hand flat on the under side?

None at all for me, but here, too, the system is only a week old.
