Fan noise on Google Chromebook Pixel
I'm online for ca. 2 hours now.
I've briefly heard the fan once or twice. Even then it only was a slight whisper and didn't bother me and stopped again after 10 or 15 seconds.
Simple explanation:
Today, for the first time (got it on Friday), I'm in "normal usage" mode.
Meaning: I actually stopped to read some reviews or emails, whereas before I was in testing mode and pushing the machine much harder.
From what I experience now, for the last 2 hours, I'd say:
If one uses Chromebook Pixel as intended, meaning surfing the web and actually reading a bit, the fan will be rarely on.
If one jumps from app to app, like I did since Friday, or watches (my test file) a 30GB rip of Avatar, the fan is on most of the time.
But so it is on my MacBook Air.
