Applejack does sound like it guides you through something that might otherwise be a bit scary - I find everytime I have to work in Terminal or console mode I get nervous I will do something irredeemably wrong!

I'm using Tiger too - and I got the idea and instructions out of my Panther edition of The Missing Manual. But you might as well continue to use Applejack now that you know how to turn off the fans! (I have occasionally had that happen to me under other circumstances and am glad to know how to make it stop.)
