Is the keyboard in the new Aluminum PowerBooks similar to the older G3 Series? e.g., can you just lift it up and check for a loose connection from the keyboard ribbon cable? They don't seem to be exactly the same because, on my PB17, I don't see the little switch to release the keyboard.... I guess I'm just trying to suggest the original poster to see if he can check for a loose keyboard ribbon cable before making the call (and possibly the trip) to AppleCare and being out of his PowerBook for some time... -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
