As I've noticed the particularly encouraging responsiveness of Apple
employees on the Usenet, I thought I would toss the following question
out to them:

What is Apple Manufacturing Corporations position with respect to present
or future repair of the loud, annoying whine of the Macintosh SE fan,
either under or not under warranty?

I tossed this question out to the campus Apple rep, who at first played
Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil with the question.  I also had
the campus dealer kick the question up to the Wisconsin area educational
rep, who was to have looked into it.  Both of these Apple employees have
communicated nothing to me, now after about six weeks.  A letter was also
sent to Apple tech staff on Applelink by the local user group (a letter
originally routed to Jean Louis Gassee, who probably has to make the final
decision on this one or at least be in on it -- the letter was rerouted
to the tech staff by the local campus rep, also a user group big wig).

I'm especially curious if Apple would prefer to wait until a large number
of warranties have expired before answering this question! ;-)  Any and
all official and/or unofficial responses are welcome!
