I have recorded 156% spikes on top of 140% constant rate as well. After long battles with Apple on this they are replacing my MBA that was bought in July and have been dealing with Apple Care since early August. They still won't state, categorically, that this is a problem. They were unable to diagnose a hardware issue after a week of testing.<br />I hope my new machine does not have the problem.Laguna_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10695353891861248750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565215409837072152.post-57494671927985788682009-07-23T13:03:16.407-07:002009-07-23T13:03:16.407-07:00Everyone mentioned MBAs, but I have an iMac and I ...Everyone mentioned MBAs, but I have an iMac and I just got the same issue. Could this be some kind of virus? I didn't have it until yesterday, when a friend installed a hard drive. HE has an MBA... did he 'give' it to me??? Surely the iMac doesn't have the cooling issues of a laptop? Dunno, but very glad I got the extra RAM, else I'd be out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
