Caps Lock light button barely works

I don't think this is normal behavior. I'm sitting here in class with the lights on and I can definately see the caps lock light when its on. Is your num lock key (F6) the same way? I have a rev. B powerbook.

If I were you, I would call Apple and see what they say.

It's defective, it needs to be sent away (not fixed at the Genius bar), and it's free. It shouldn't take more than a few days.

However... back up your system first, and deauthorize iTunes just in case they send you a new one or wipe the disk or whatever. 99% chance it'll be your PB returned, better than new, but why risk it?

Edit: call Apple support. Maybe you can take it in. But, likely, they'll ship you a next-day box to send it back in, and you'll get it back a few days later.

There isn't a light on F6 (and it doesn't look like there should be...?)

There isn't a light persay, but mine lights up underneither when I push it.

Call Apple! Sorry that there was a problem out of the box, but, once that gets fixed, your system should provide you with years of enjoyment! But I'd call and have it fixed before you install more software on it!

my pro keyboard's num lock button doesn't work at all either... but it doesn't bother me.. makes my keyboard unique...

also, the num lock doesn't have any effect on the numerical keyboard... what should it do exactly?
i know it works because it functions as clear in calculator...

It doesn't light up on a desktop Pro keyboard. In Ye Olde Worlde computer times it turned the numeric keypad in to a set of directional arrow, which is pretty much useless these days. It may still work if you have Universal Access/Full Keyboard Access enabled, I'm not sure.
