So I was enjoying my new 2.2 Ghz, and about 5 or 10 minutes after bootup, I noticed a high-pitched squeal coming out of the left side of the notebook, near the power adapter. I got really annoyed and kinda worried, becuase it was realy bothersome. After a couple of minutes it stopped.

I read that this has something to do with the two cores of the processor?

Is this a problem that I should get fixed/complain about at an Apple Store?

Will it come back?

Thanks in advance for any replies!
 
It's the processor going in and out of a sleep state. All Core Duo/Core 2 Duo chips do this in laptops. My Dell D620, HPDV9000, Dell XPSM140, and Macbook do this.
