Just double click that file and you will see a small eject symbol (an upward pointing triangle with a line under it) in the menubar. Pull that down and you will see an option to “Open {SuperDrive}” or what ever drive your parents system uses.

Most Mac’s these days use trayless “slot loading” cd drives. So you shouldn’t even need to open the cd slot to put a Disc in. Taking it out is just a matter of using the above or Command-E from the Finder or Right-Clicking (Ctrl-Clicking) the CD icon on the desk top and selecting Eject.

Have you been able to use Expose and Dashboard by using the keys on the keyboard? Those two keys on my keyboard don’t do anything at all. I have had to map F16-F19 to the same uses that F9-F12 used to do. I don’t mind, I prefer that more anyway. I hated the idea of losing F10 and F11 just because Apple didn’t feel we used them enough or something.

Thanks

Dave, not sure to be honest…though I also have had problems playing 1st person games using multiple keys with a wireless setup and getting little response. This has never been a problem for me with wired keyboards and Microsoft DMP keyboard may be what you are looking for. TwitchGuru.com provides some interesting info/reviews on some gaming keyboards, but from what I can see most of these are wired units and gaming and wireless just does not sound like a good mix.

I’ve also checked out images of the MacBook or possible keyboard, which looks a lot like a regular Mac Keyboard with a new outer shell. If this is true…our problems with keys sticking may only be minimized and not completely resolved.

I too have the problem of my Mac keyboard “sticking” when I type letters like ‘a’ or other keys where I’m not pushing straight down on them to press them.

The rumored new keyboard, the one that looks like it came off of a MacBook, really interests me. The MacBook keyboard is great and feels really good to me. If Apple releases a keyboard that is like the MacBook keyboard. I’ll be buying one of those the second I see it’s available.

Every wireless keyboard I have tried can not handle having more than 3 keys down at once. I play Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas all the time and I have yet to find a wireless keyboard that can handle that game. Maybe I just got used to the controls incorrectly, but the way I play requires more than 3 keys down and being seen by the game. If it can handle that and if Apple doesn’t release a new keyboard soon, I’ll give the keyboard a try. However, I’m expecting that it will perform like all the other wireless keyboards I have tried.
