Anyone have an idea as to why my previously quiet Macbook Pro has started occasionally sounding like a plane preparing to takeoff? ::is worried; pets Macbook::

How old is it? The fan might be going...

Do you have apple care? Can you take it in to be looked at?

Don't *tell* me that! I just bought it at end of December. :(
And I have noticed it gets quite warm now. Crap.

I don't think I purchased any additional Apple Care, but I've heard it's good for a year after purchase, right?

A year sounds about right... it can't hurt to bring it in right, and see what they say?

Dunno, but my really ancient desktop that I had before my laptop started having that problem around the end. Granted, it was around 5 years old by then, and at that point I was afraid that the dust all accumulated inside it would cause a fire someday or something.

I like my laptop now, no noise at all. It gets hot as heck underneath, though. I thought it was kind of funny, when I was at my dad's house and had my laptop on my, well, lap, and my dad's wife Talley was like "Uh, hey [Nickname] you might not want to put your laptop there anymore if you hope to have kids someday, if you know what I mean" Oh...yeah :(

It's gotten better. I think it was some wonkey ware that got downloaded by mistake. I managed to get rid of it and things have been fairly smooth.
