Hi all. I have a Rev. A 12-inch Powerbook, and I was wondering if it's cool to run Folding@Home on it. As soon as I start up the app, the fan comes on immediately and never goes off until I quit the app. After using Macs for about 5 yrs. now, I'm just not used to hearing a fan. It's probably no big thing, just wanted to check.

Thanks.

Yeah, I have a 15" and my fan comes on all the time.

I stop using it. . .

Anything that runs your CPU at full is going to make the fan come on. That's normal. I've got fah going on my Tibook right now and it's fine.
