Le sigh. Fan on MBP is intermittently attempting to spin, so sounds like controller on motherboard, or fan itself is borked. The wonderful and necessary SMC fan control is not helping it, so thinking is hardware rather than software. Fortunately, a dear friend (hi Corey!) is rescuing me with his studio 27″ iMac (spoilt!), as my under warranty repair has to wait 5 days before even being looked at – and two days if parts not to hand.

Thank the small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri that i have a good friend to bail me…as much as I love my iPad, a desktop/laptop/full on machine work replacement for a developer it is most definitely not.

Of course, taking my first small class of students at the University tomorrow as part of Serval…will let Tardis the 13″Macbook Pro settle down for a while before restarting him, and seeing if i can finish what i was doing in Eclipse with the Android SDK to get ready…
