I can't hear the fan on my MacBook! Read this from Apple

''The guts are top of the line and sizzling fast: the latest quad-core Intel processor, Bluetooth 4.0, a memory card slot and a cooling fan that has asymmetrical blades. That’s to make the fan quieter, since irregular blades spread the air noise over multiple frequencies. (Wow, Apple — perfectionist much?) ''

This is spread spectrum and carries the possibility of spread resonances and microphonic effects.

It is difficult to understand why a large surface area case is not used for heat disssipation at all.
