    Hey,

    Just bought myself a SZ420 since I got a good deal on it. Problem is that I can almost always hear the fan. Fan starts at about 38 degrees meaning its pretty much always on.

    Is this normal?
    Are the Santa Rosa laptops any quieter since they can underclock FSB giving lower CPU overall frequencies?
