I have a 17" Rv B iMac G5, and it can get loud when i have a bunch of stuff open. Just curious if Apple finally corrected the fan problem...

I have the exact same issue, except my fan also comes on when i'm recording sound in iMovie, which makes it hard to hear.

I have a Rev. B and it isn't that load, my guess is that the Rev. C is the same.
