[QUOTE="skykingturbo, post: 1003875, member: 50138"] The problem described above became problematic enough that I decided to talk to a tech at the Apple store. It was going to cost minimum $100 plus parts. I thought what the heck, and decided to try the solution suggested y grvlmike (above). I very simply removed the battery, which revealed the translucent plastic cover over the ribbon connectors. I gently pulled the widest ribbon cable out of it's socket, gently cleaned it with alcohol, then re-inserted the cable into position and replaced the translucent plastic protector. Result: SUCCESS!! All keys functioning properly now. [/QUOTE]
