[QUOTE="garymj, post: 1582392, member: 297137"] [b]worth repairing ?[/b] My 2 cents : Clean it and dry it for a week or 2, then hook it to an external monitor and give it a good workout for a week. If nothing else fails you've got a better diagnosis and there aren't any "weak" parts. "Some" keycaps can be popped off and cleaned too, in case its a brightness control issue. I finally bought a silicone keyboard cover for my daily surfing 2008 mac laptop, and it works well. Since its a freebie all you'll lose is a little time :) [/QUOTE]
