My faulty MacBook Pro
My wonderful, beloved MacBook Pro has some bad problems. Well Leopard has some strange minor bugs, especially in the new features. But new Xcode and improved Interface Builder excuse a lot. I waited a long time for improved versions of those programs and the weak Xcode compared to Visual Studio is one of the reasons, why I cannot completly switch to Mac OS X.
Sadly I have a really annoying software bug since a few days and after some research I am not alone with this. On some MacBook Pros with Leopard (10.5.0 and 10.5.1) the keyboard stops working properly after putting the system to sleep once. The input is not processed all time, it exposes for a few seconds once or twice a minute and make working impossible. The only solution to this is a reboot or plug in an external keyboard.
When I attached my normal keyboard to the notebook, it also did not response. It was the first time I tried to use an USB device on this MacBook Pro and my external HDDs or the PSP are also not working. I guess my USB controller is faulty.
My only hope is that I have very good experince with the Apple support. But I need my notebook and cannot give it away for a long time :(

Those problems have nothing to do with Windows, Parallels or BootCamp.
These are pure Mac problems. Well the USB problem is the same under BootCamp.
