[comp.sys.mac] SE Fan Problems

niel@ihwpt.ATT.COM (M. N. Ransom) (09/16/87)

I recently upgraded(?) my Macintosh Plus to a Machintosh SE.  Now suddenly
I recall all the complaints about its fan!  Indeed, it makes a rotton
noise and causes the screen to wabble.  For the first time since I
started maccing, I find I shut the thing off unless I'm actually using
it.

My question.  I seem to recall that there were work-arounds some people
had devised such as adding a strategic resistor someplace.  Also there
was discussion of substitute fans.  Would someone be so kind as
to forward the information to me?

By the way, the "upgrade" was achieved by ordering the SE and giving the
Plus to one of the engineers who reports to me.  Should I pull rank and
demand my Plus back?
