Det är ju nästan samma fråga som tidigare, men visst varför inte (fast betala för det, tycker jag är en senare fråga)
Antagligen kommer det att bli en hänvisning till det underbara KB-dokumentet:

TITLE
Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors): Increased Noise Levels Expected
Article ID:42948
Created: 1/14/03
Modified:1/15/03
TOPIC
Increased noise levels are expected with dual processor computers.
DISCUSSION
The sound generated by Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors) computers is approximately equivalent to previous dual processor computers. Users who upgrade from earlier, single processor computers might notice that the computer is louder. This is because there are more parts to cool--multiple processors and additional expansion capabilities--within the same form factor.
However, Apple has found that there are some situations that may lead to increased sound levels beyond what is expected.
One is addressed with the 4.4.8 version of the firmware (BootROM) for your computer. See software download document 120171 "Power Mac G4 Firmware Update: Information and Download" if you have an earlier version. You can tell which version of firmware your computer has by using Apple System Profiler.
Other situations include the processor fan constantly spinning at high speed, and a clicking sound that comes from the computer´s power supply. In both of these cases, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) to determine if your computer is affected by either of these symptoms. Apple has directed AASPs on how to address affected computers.

The noise level was one of the biggest complaints many customers had with the previous generation Power Macs. According to Apple, this problem has been fixed and customers will be happy with the results of the work put into correcting this issue.
"We worked really hard and went over the systems to find every possible way to make the system quieter," said Tom Boger, Director, Power Mac Product Marketing. "I´m happy to tell you that we´ve done that -- when the systems get out in the marketplace, I´m sure our customers are going to be delighted at how quiet these systems are."
"They are significantly quieter -- these will answer the critics," added Joswiak.

Så hur lyckades man presentera en tyst MDD den 28/1, när det 14/1 var i stort sett omöjligt att åtgärda (förutom de fall där man kunde misstänka brister i komponenterna.)?
Det är något magiskt över hela situationen, liksom...
