I have been using my 2011 Mac Mini Server together with my 1080p HDTV with great results but I do have one issue with the computer:
The fan is really aggressive, it will activate and run at a very noticeable speed if I leave XBMC running on the computer idle long enough for the screensaver to activate. (The fan noise goes away as soon as I start video playback.)

Is this normal? I had the previous Mini before this (the 2.4 C2D with the same design) I never heard the fan in that computer.
