Come on! It's not THAT bad! Mine just makes a sort of "whoosh-ing" noise.
I can live with that. It also keeps my USR Courier modem cool too.
The breeze coming from the left side of the cabinet is pretty useful for
that purpose. After putting up with an overheated Apple //e, Mac 512K
and Mac Plus, I'm glad to see that this bit of Steve Job's wisdom has
been quitely laid to rest. Forever, I hope. I for one was absolutely 
delighted when I was the IIGS, SE and II all made available with fans.
Finally, I don't have to worry that the computer is going to act flakey
whenever the weather gets hot. On the other hand, my monochrome monitor
sure used to rattle a lot when placed on top of the CPU. I tracked the noise
down to a plastic part that prevents miscellaneous object from entering 
in via the security port. A tiny dab of hot glue did the trick.
