Mac Pro Smell
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9) 8-core
You may want to give AppleCare a call if the smell
doesn't diminish very shortly.
I poked my head in my Mac Pro today after getting
tired of the smell, and discovered the CPU heatsinks
are speckled with partially-melted plastic shavings
which are presumably the source of the odor. Looks
quite reminiscent of a car's grille after a road
trip.
The power supply also smells, but I can't see in
there so no idea if it's in the same condition. I'm
calling AppleCare tomorrow and will hopefully have a
tech out Thursday to do... something.

Ahhh... I LOVE the small of Mac Pro in the morning!
