[QUOTE="Badger, post: 209125"] My eMac fan was about the same volume as my G3 iMac, noticeable but not obtrusive. I've not heard whether this is a problem with specific machines but there is a hardware hack to install a speed control at: [url]http://www.lbodnar.dsl.pipex.com/eMac/eMac-upgrade.html[/url] (scroll down to fan section). I have not used Final Cut but I found that my eMac (1 ghz, 768 mb RAM) seemed to take its time when running some simple projects in iMovie and iDVD. IMO you'd better off with a high-end mini, even a used one. [/QUOTE]
