VERY Loud Fan

I was just wondering if any of you have dealt with very loud fans on your Cisco switches. I have some 3500 series switches and a couple of them have some fans that could bust an eardrum.

If so, what did you do to fix the noise?
 
Turn the radio up!!! :)

Seriously, I've noticed the newer Cisco switches are getting louder and louder. I guess because everything is getting faster and smaller it is needed in order to keep things cool (or at least from starting on fire).

I started up a Cisco 4908 yesterday in the office and it sounded like a jet taking off. *J*
