Does fans run during netflix?

[jacob.schmidt]

Hi folks!

I'm torn between buying an MBA or MBP and just want to know if your fans on MBP (i5) starts when streaming netflix content? I've tried streaming on a MBA C2D 4gb ram, and it heats up when streaming

Is the same thing to happen with the MBP-line?

Netflix will start the fans spinning on every consumer-grade Mac currently produced.
