Anyone know how loud the current crop of MBPs and imacs get? Or are they passive cooled only?

Depends what you're doing. I've never noticed any of the current iMacs getting too loud though, even under intensive GPU apps. MBP, on the other hand - it's that much smaller so needs to ramp its fans up a lot when working hard. It's hardly massively loud though.

Ok thanks, maybe I'll see if I can get one sweating in an Apple store. Recording audio is a bummer if a fan kicks halfway through a take!
