MacBook Pro owners isolating problems
Owners of Apple's new MacBook Pro are experiencing whine/sound problems with their notebooks -- some of which may be traced to early production versions of the laptop, although there is some conflicting evidence from posters on Apple's support forum. Numerous users are reporting a sound like that of a cow "mooing" in the distance, which seems to emanate from a fan that can't seem to start. Other users report noises when adjusting screen brightness, and some users believe that serial numbers may link the defective models to manufacturing dates. One user recently posted photos of his "torched" MacBook Pro power connector, which allegedly burned up. The photos were removed at Apple's request from Flikr on Thursday, according to Cult of Mac.

According to the commentary on Flickr, the guy's cat decided to mark the MacBook Pro adapter as his 'territory', thus causing the damage.
hee-hee....cats.
I feel for those with problems, though. Just as long as we don't get into the mindset that ALL MacBook Pros have problems.
