I don't know if it's something to worry about per se, but it might be a sign your computer isn't happy. If it's been a while, I would:
- boot up from OS X install disc (shut down the computer and then hold down the C key to make it start from Install disc) then run Disk Utility. Select your hard disk and then select Repair Disk.
It might find/fix the software related problem that is mucking up your computer.
If it starts up normally afterwards, I'd then run "Repair Disk Permissions" from Disk Utility as well (from the macbook is fine - you don't need to restart from the Install disc for Permissions repair).
If everything checks out, and you're still having problems, it might be hardware related, but I'd run Disk Utility first and see if that helps.

Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Try these and post back, I'll do more research and figure this out, promise.\
