    Reason for MacBook Pro frozen thumb bar??

    Apple just repaired my 1yr-old MacBook Pro, without explanation. The thumb bar had become increasingly hard to press, and finally was frozen in the down position. Couldn't even use an external mouse as the thumb bar over-road it. I'm happy with the repair and very curious whether others have...

    Surely I'm not the only one. Is this a hardware or system problem? Under no circumstances will the lid stay closed on my 17" MacBook, even when I shut it off. It sits about 1" open. Do I take it in for repair, or is there a quick fix? Terry

    Virtual Pc / Parallel Workstation

    What's your luck been activating Windows in the Parallels work station? So far it doesn't accept my Product Key, although I just purchased Windows today. I'm wondering if it's a problem with recognizing the Windows install in the Workstation environment instead of the PC itself.

    Intel Mac dropping packets big time on VoIP

    My daughter is a network tech and reports that her new Macbook Pro is dropping 50% of packets on VoIP connections -- and next to none on WiFi or direct ethernet. She's being told by other network techs that this not uncommon with Intel chips (on PCs) and is not a defect of her particular Mac...
