I honestly hate to get into these types of discussions (that and those about what temperature a PB should normally be), because there are soooo many variables that can affect how hot a unit runs. - how much RAM - how big the HDD is - the cache speed - the ambient temperature - how is the air-flow under the unit - is the internal modem in use - how much HDD access is occurring - some applications make the computer run hotter than others - etc. The only reason I jumped into this discussion was the statement that COCCORP's WS fan was **always** on. That's the antithesis of my experience; and apparently yours too. Bob -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
