Another hilarious anecdote from Avaragado’s never-ending supply.
I’ve discovered how to make the noisy fan work on my Powerbook. All I do is run a program called Xjournal, which is the LiveJournal client I’m using to write this very entry.
I guess something’s spinning in the code, which warms up the CPU enough to start up the propellor.
Memo to self: avoid burnt lap.

I have a noisy fan on my Sony Vaio, Skippy. I can make it sound like it’s blowing up just by running Dreamweaver, photoshop and Quark all at the same time. Oh, and if I open Word as well, it starts vibrating on my desk. Lucky desk.
