[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1619223, member: 56379"] - Have you considered that an iMac and a MacBook Pro are totally different designs? - Have you considered that the components in a MacBook Pro are much more closely "packed" than in an iMac? - Have you considered that the fans in an iMac might be much larger & move more air at the same or lower rpm's than the fan in a MacBook Pro? The ONLY discussion of this sort that would be logical…is if you had two of the exact same MacBook Pro models…exact same hardware configurations…and both doing exactly the same thing. Then a comparison of temps & fan speeds might be proper. Making this sort of comparison is like comparing what an 18-wheel tractor trailer is doing versus a VW Beetle!;) NOT Comparable! - Nick [/QUOTE]
