I'm sure everyone has seen this thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=374397&tstart=0 about the 'whine' that appears to be prevelant on the new MacBook Pros. I've been on the fence of ordering one since they've been anounced and was ready to order one this morning until I saw this thread and others like it reporting problems. I'm very sensitive to most electronic hums or 'whines' and fear that if my MacBook has this problem I won't be able to use it at all. I know that only people that have problems normally post on these forums but I'm curious as to how many people have either bought one and had no issues at all with it, or had one with the 'whine' that has since been repaired. Thanks to anyone that responds.

No Whine!
Do all MacBook Pros have a whine?
We have two here. A 1.83 and 2.0 and both seem fine
no whine from mine.
No whine on my 2.0GHz MacBook. Very quiet. I do hear noise when the DVD drive is in use, but that's to be expected.
No whine on my either.... extremely quiet...
Mine is perfect!
ive had mine for 2 weeks and no whinin to complain about
No whine here either.

No whine on the stock MBP 2 GHz I tested at the local Apple Store.
I also set the monitor at different brightness and no whine either.
Overall it was as quiet as my PB 12" 1.5.

As I see all of your Mac Book Pros are silent and I am planning to purchase one I want to know when your purchased yours.
I have one. 2.16 GHz, 100GB 7200 RPM, 1GB RAM ( 2x512).It's perfect!
What's the point of this question, there will likely be a large number of people who don't notice the whine even though it's there.
i have no whine at all, and its not because its there and i just haven't heard it yet, its actually not there. i have absolutley no problems with mine at all. i ordered it right after the keynote and i got it feb. 21st. i have a 2.0 ghz. its fabulous

Does anyone have a MBP that does NOT have the whine issue?
