Hi all

I've noticed that the keyboard on my rev c 12" tends to bulge out around the f7 to f10 keys. Anyone else have this problem? Is it normal?

Thanks

Looking at the keyboard of my Rev C 12" PowerBook I'd say there is no bulge there whatsoever.

But after picking up a ruler and holding it across the F-keys from ESC to Eject I could see that the F7 and F8 keys are in fact about 1/2 mm higher than the others, indeed 'bulging'.

So I guess some bulge is normal...

Mine bulges around the F1/F2 Brightness keys. It makes it a little tricking to increase the brightness, since I have to push the button in just the right place.

On my 15" it bulges around the F10, and F11 keys. Those keys as well as others on that side make strange noises when pressed.
