Ok so for the first couple of days of use I rarely heard a 'moo' out of my Macbook. Now three weeks later it starts mooing within a couple of minutes of booting up and continues at a regular pace. I also notice the Macbook getting hotter faster than it originally did. Seems to me that this is definitely an technical problem. Could it be the thermal paste is swishing around and causing issues? Anybody else experience the mooing getting worse as time goes on? Supposedly the MBP got a firmware fix so hopefully the MB fix is just around the corner.

MacMan, The reason people are so "skeptical" of you is you run your mouth as the all-knowing, however, you never back up your statements..

-blackbooks flaking
-defective trackpads
-firmware updates

Not. I am positive there likely will be a firmware update, as it is usually around the time in a product line that one may be released, however, I highly doubt you have substance to back up any claims you make.

This is a forum for technical discussion, not name calling and juvenile behavior. Stop immediately or face banning.

You have indeed not provided any substantiation for your claims, and others have called you on this. Either provide evidence or put up with people saying "why should I believe you."

Thread closed on account of bad behavior.
