[QUOTE="dyinginavan, post: 407318, member: 30966"] ^ Yup, I think that's the ticket. Over the days of usage, it's bothering me less and less, it really isn't loud unless I put my ear to the keyboard. I'm hesitant to install little scripts that will do tasks to keep my system from being idle, though, idk. So long as nothing is broken and the laptop is working well, I don't feel very bothered but it's nice to be able to identify it as [i]something[/i]. I think it depends how attentive the user is, though. I mentioned to my friend about it, she's had her macbook a few months and she now hates me as she hadn't noticed before and now she keeps leaning down to hear it. Oops! Regardless, it's still the quietest, most silent laptop I've ever worked with. My room is pretty small and going from a huge beast of a cranking dinoasaur (Dell Dimension 5000) to my Macbook, I can't believe it :) [/QUOTE]
