[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1806178, member: 396914"] Never heard of it, and I doubt it's true. The fans don't "blow" anything, they pull air out of the Mac and fresh air comes in through vents in the case. Accelerating the fans won't move much dust. It should more like something in the thermal sensors is intermittently telling the fans to run harder. But the Apple store testing may disclose what that is. [/QUOTE]
