hi.
in the back room of W20-575 (the one with the SGIs; where the printer
"fiber" is) there are what look like 2 ac units hung from the 
ceiling.  The one that is closer to the main room (or further away
from fiber)  has been making a very annoying sound on and off for
a few months now. Some days it's fine, but other days it is constantly
producing a whinning screeching sound that makes one want to 
jump up there and rip its power cord out.

if i had to guess at the source of the problem, i'd say that it's 
either an unbalanced fan (perhaps caused by dust build-up)
or a loose mounting bracket.  Most likely the latter caused by the 
former... :-)

in any case... it's really, really, really annoying (as perhaps
i may have mentioned only a few lines ago).  I would greatly
appreciate if someone could look at it.



Thank you,

radu aghinii
