No I don't. I'm just counting the posts here on this thread, especially the ones who have upgraded to 10022.
I thought that that was a fair indication as well but apparently not.

Actually two other users discussed this fan issue recently and went back to 8.1 as a result. I have practically no fan under 8.1 and unless W10 is using some hardware 8.1 did not (unlikely in the extreme), I don't think this is a hardware defect. It's been shown over and over that W10 Preview has the interesting ability to affect everyone's machines differently.
I think the more likely explanation is that since W10 Preview is a beta, it's running lots of debugging crap in the background that doesn't necessarily appear in the Task Manager and for whatever reason, this combines with my software environment to make the fan blow, or maybe God is just punishing me for being so incredibly good looking, hard to say.

I hear you, but I'm leaving my MacBook as a pristine OS X machine for writing/testing/etc. And I have Win10 on my desktop running quite nicely, so can use it there to good effect.

Unless you assume that the tiny sample of users here is somehow representative of the thousands (or more) running W10 Preview.
People forget that the universe of those actually commenting in a thread such as this is incredibly small and statistically meaningless. Of course it's not without value, but I wouldn't use it to predict marketwide trends.Right now, my fan has gone silent. Who knows?

Neither would I. But none the less it is a good indicator. And not to mention people typically tend to post problems, not a lack of problems.

It's just teasing.
I think the issue Mitch has goesfar beyond simpole sync work. Seems to have been persistent from day one (granted he seems to revert to 8.1 every other day, but most on this forum seem to have had no fan issues following sync and updating etc.

Ok. I take back the sleep button workaround to the black screen. Just had this happen to me again. Apparently it's only when I disconnect the keyboard and the system goes to Continuum where this bug comes about. Seriously a pain. Coupled with the black picture password, I'm almost to the point of going back to 8.1.
