bahaha. or put peanut butter on the insides and stick a magnet or something to the hard drive. that will most defiantly not void you're warranty

hahahahaha that was pretty good. you had me going there for a good bit.

seriously though, take it to the mac store. maybe google something like "mac top key row not working" or something along those lines. if no luck, then head to the mac store cause i doubt you can fix it yourself...

exact thing happened with me, only when i turned it on it worked, but sometimes i would turn it one and te keyboard would not work. so i called 1800MYAPPLE, and they said the next time it happens, call em. They like keep your problems with your comp on record, so if you do fix it, but it happens again, as it will in my case, they can help you out.

hope that was coherent
