Really? My MP is relatively loud -- I can hear the fans or drives or something in the next room. But when sitting right next to it I have tuned it out and don't really notice it unless I think about it. The fans are low RPM noise --- not PC type fan noise. Kind of a lowish rumble. Comparatively it is quiet but not at all like a mini or anything that really is pretty dead quiet most of the time._______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
