i'm not sure, but <xlr8yourmac.com> will tell you.  also, while that's a good idea, 
they are grossly overcharging you! 
you can make your own pad like that from a squishy mouse pad (the kind with fabric on 
top and foam on the bottom) or any
similar foam.  it will help, but it's not magic and won't completely silence things.  
you want to do the same thing for
any other fans in the case.  

also on some macs there's a fan grill on the power supply and on the case, the extra 
grill increase the noise from air
turbulence considerably, you can remove the grill on the case and just use the one on 
the power supply (you want it to
keep things out of the fan and to maintain the emi/rfi shielding).  

also see < http://www.sciplus.com/category.cfm?subsection=11&category=111> for some 
other materials that would work
nicely.  you want something "squishy" not springy, i.e. you want something dead, the 
type of material that things tend
not to bounce off of but to come to rest on if say you dropped a marble on it the 
marble should suddenly stop when it
hits rather than bounce off.  you want to absorb the mechanical energy and turn it 
into heat (that is what really
happens, it's just not much heat).  besides, it's a great company with a truly warped 
sense of humor which i love! 
their cork sheeting might work nicely, just remember you need something thing so 
everything will still fit and you want
it anywhere the power supply etc. touches the case.

Why are republicans afraid of the U.N. observing our elections?  Do U.S. citizens 
deserve less than those of other
countries? <http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article6505.htm> In many states 
citizens still have the option of
using a paper ballot, if they ask.  I urge all voters to demand the right to vote on 
paper and create an auditable
election.  There is something fundamentally wrong when voting machines are designed to 
not provide any physical record
of votes.
