[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 916944, member: 59143"] What a coincidence. I had this same problem last week at my mother in-law's house. I'm in Hungary right now so also on 220v with my MacBook Pro. At this moment, we are staying in another place and I've got it plugged in. I can feel the vibration ever so slightly, but not nearly as much as it was at her house. Also, I can only ever feel it when I rub or swoosh my hand or fingers on top of the palm rests or the aluminum edges of the screen or speakers. Never when my palms or hands are just resting on it. Weird for sure. Now, I'm no electrician or anything, but IMHO it would seem that it could be the fault of shoddy wiring or an unstable flow of electricity. I guess that an electrician would have to weigh in here for confirmation though. I just hope this isn't going to cause any long term side effects/damage. Doug [/QUOTE]
