[QUOTE="walmartconnect, post: 406972, member: 21669"] F2-F6 thing: "CPU Whine". It seems that with a lot of the CPUs used in macbooks/pros, if the CPU is idle (less than 4% active I believe), some people report to have heard this. To test it, open up Photo Booth and see if the whining noise goes away. It would because the CPU would be constantly active from all of the video processing. Apple has yet to recognize this issue in my machine :( [URL="http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/macbook-pro-noise-complaints/"]Check this blog out[/URL] [/QUOTE]
