A few months after I bought my SE (two years ago), the official Apple fan
upgrade became available, but for $90 (Can.). I ordered mine (couldn't
stand the noise and jitter). I didn't arrive for 4 months (must have been
popular), but in the mean time my analog board died and was fixed under
warranty. It came with the new fan. As far as I know, that's the only
way to get it free.
