I like that website. Clean and simple. No nonsense
trying to download the file. (Even though they tell
me in big red letters that their site won't work
without javascript.)


I had to enable Flash to hear it.

You might try unplugging one or more fans to see
if it still happens. The housings can sometimes be
very tight. For instance, I used to have a graphics
card with a small fan that rubbed for a bit when the
room temperature was cool. It could be that you have
such a fan, that it's just making slight contact, and
that you only hear that as the speed ramps up.

Like Spalls, I wasn't sure which sound was the problem; the general
consensus that it's a fan seems likely.

On at least one Dell I've encountered, the fans start at full speed,
then settle down. Is this something that's just started happening, or
something that's always been the case?
