Yeah, I didn't said that all Corsair RAMs are not compatible. I just said to stay away from Corsair VALUE Rams... Since there are numerous bad reports of Corsair Value Rams, I'd say it is better to be safe than sorry smile.gif Not all stores offer exchange on Rams just because they won't work with your MacBook.

But I am using Corsair Value RAM.

Got another question here, do any of u use your Macbook on the power line all the time? And do you remove the battery while doing so? Is it necessary to remove the battery?

@civic and lokgotz: Apple recommends that you at least drain the battery once a month - unplug power and drain it until warning pops up.

@minde: illumination can only happen when it's really dark... i.e. night time. the function keys F9 and F10 can be used to adjust ur keyboard illumination.

The sensors are within the speakers.... Just wait till night time and switch off your lights. lol. I'm surprised you haven't triggered the illumination. It should come naturally at night unless your lights are super bright.

If you're really intent on seeing the illuminated keyboard, just place some heavy paper over the speakers. It'll light up.

Well, CMIIW but Mac's FS do not need a disk defragment app because the FS defrags the drive as it read/write data. Same goes for most *nix OS.

No, but you can sign up for a free trial. Just go to mac.com and sign up for one.

Actually I'm still having problem with my Windows on Boot Camp. I'm not sure if it's normal, someone please let me knw if you have the same problem or solution.

1. Time settings, my Windows and Mac OSX time settings is always 8 hours apart, whichever I change, the other goes 8 hours different;

2. Tapping on the trackpad does not generate a mouseclick, as well as right click doesnt work in Windows.

FYI I'm already updated to the latest Boot Camp and also updated the drivers.

Whichever I set to Malaysian time zone, which is what it is supposed to be, the other move to the time zone which is 8 hours apart.
