Loud fan on brand new macbook?

I'm not sure if this is normal or if theres something up with my new macbook.
i just got the 2.4 version and the fan runs about the half the time and it seems louder than it should. according to the istat widget (which i don't know how accurate that is) its running at about 2000 rpm. anyone have any info on this?

2.4 Macbook, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

I can hear it constantly. Once it made a farting like noise and the noise just stopped, but about 30 minutes later it was back to making the noise. Even if the T.V. is playing, my brother is playing music, we are having dinner, and we are talking.
