Would anyone who cares about quiet Macs please go to http://www.g4noise.com and register and contribute to their new board ASAP. Steve Jobs is going to be looking at this site Thursday or Friday. This dovetails nicely with NAMM don't you think? We need all audio and video people's support please: I just posted this string for example: Cube Owners Support Mdd Owners' Quest For Silence, We Have Near Silent Dual 1.2 GHz Macs I am adding this string to show a thread of sympathy, solidarity and support from those one quarter million of us who will die with our powerful Cubes still producing wonderful work in silence. We are now adding dual 800 MHz, dual GHz and dual 1.2 GHz processors to our Cubes with only the need for one small quiet 8 CM fan. We understand the need for silent computing more than any other Macintosh market segment. What has happened to the MDD community is something that has kept almost all of us from joining you. Your struggle is our struggle. I know I won't buy a PowerMac until these noise issues are addressed seriously and consistently by the Apple Computer Corporation. May all Cube owners please take a few minutes to place your vote and comment here to help the MDD owner community know that they are not alone in your conviction that power and silence need not be mutually exclusive features in one Macintosh computer.
