Again the powerbook is in the shop. A few weeks ago the right arrow and down arrow started popping up a little, but i didnt really worry about it because it wasn't that big of a problem. Well, yesterday i closed the lid and opened her back up to find a black screen that would not come back on (got really worried). Anyway, held the power to restart and she worked until later when it did the same thing.... hmm, i thought to myself. This morning I woke up to find... (suspenseful) yes, the same thing. Called the closest applecare certified repair center and they said to bring her in for diagnostic checkup (whatever that is). Anyway, its there now and I should find out whats wrong with her in the next few days. Hopefully she can be fixed, along with the keyboard too which they said they would take care of. Anyone else have the problem of the computer crashing instead of sleeping?

I've had the screen stay blank if I close it and reopen it before it fully goes into sleep. But I've never had it be in sleep mode and not wake up.
